Add support for multiple roots. about gojsonsm HOT 3 CLOSED

In my opinion, JSONSM itself is intended to primarily handle the case of filtering on a single JSON document, if matching needs to be possible against multiple documents, those independent documents should be rolled into a single string of bytes for passing into the matcher. For instance, in the case of wanting to match against a document and its metadata, you might generate:

{
  "$meta": {
    // ... metadata contents
  },
  //  ... document contents
}

Or alternatively maybe something like:

{
  "$meta": {
    // ... metadata contents
  },
  "$doc": {
    //  ... document contents
  }
}

Assigning this to @nelio2k as I think this feature primarily hinges on his input.

I am going to close this for now. The expected implementation will use a staging area to generate a temporary document from the incoming documents, allowing them all to be placed into a single document for passing to JSONSM.
