using jackson to serialize/deserialze protobuff into json

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I was wondering why a json parser like jackson was not used for json 
coding/decoding.  I wrote a simple codec for json which uses jackson as the 
underlying framework and found that the performance for json serialization 
almost doubled.  The implementation is quite basic and lacks supports for 
unknownfieldsets. 
Would appreciate a feedback since I just started out with protobuf.

Was thinking about switching from internal JSON implemntation to external one 
(was checking other libs but couldn't test it enough). If you wish, you're 
welcome to replace the current JsonFormat implementation with your submitted 
Reader/Writer

Would be happy to, lemme clean this up a bit and add support for extensions and 
unknown fields, meanwhile could you provide me commit access on this project?
