+``JSON_DECODE_ANY``
+   By default, the decoder expects that its whole input constitutes a
+   valid JSON array or a valid JSON object. With this flag enabled,
+   the decoder accepts any valid JSON value.
+   This can be incompatible with the JSON_DISABLE_EOF_CHECK flag,
+   because the decoder may read up to 4 extra bytes from the input
+   (one utf-8 encoded character).

 The following functions perform the actual JSON decoding.
