json_pointer_get_single_path() returned ENOENT when the array element
at an in-range index was NULL, which is how json-c stores a JSON null.
A null object member was already found, but on [0, null, 2] "/1" failed
with "not found", although RFC 6901 says it references the null value.
The array index is bounds-checked just before, so a NULL element now
resolves like a null member: json_pointer_get() returns 0 and sets
*res to NULL. This also fixes json_patch_apply(), which failed every
"test", "replace" and "remove" on a null array element, and every
"move" and "copy" from one, with "Did not find element referenced by
path field".
Added a json_pointer_get() test, and json_patch_tests.json cases that
mirror the existing null object member ones.
The out-of-bounds check is useful when trying to index/obtain a value from
an array.
However, when we set a value to a specific JSON pointer, we can allow
values that are outside the length of the current array.
The RFC6901 doc isn't clear on that aspect, and doing so is a bit more
in-line with how json_object_array_{put,insert}_idx() functions behave.
This changes the behavior of json_pointer_set{f}() because now a value can
be set anywhere in the array.
Also, added a test-case for this behavior change.

If we want to override `strerror()` in libjson-c
to make tests consistent across platforms, we
need to do it build-wide as configure/build
option.
Apple linkers make it really hard to override functions
at link-time, and this seems to be locked down on travis-ci.org
[ for security reasons I assume ].
While I got it to work locally, it did not work
when running on travis.
