Support JSON parsing in scraper engine #391

This is an old idea that i made into an issue just now so i won't forget it.
Currently we use regular expression to parse content (the only solution for
just text). We should add new nodes or expand the attributes on the Parse
node in the scraper engine that will allow more efficient parsing on common
text-based formats:

* XPath queries (XML)
* JSON Queries (JSON)

Especially as some of the data providers already return XML, just using
regular expression on those is a bit inefficient.

Retagged the version number for this issue. This is not a rescheduling, we 
are just changing our version number scale.
