`jetson.stats` is not a valid JSON string

[sheldonmaschmeyer]

Describe the bug

The jetson.stats is almost a valid JSON string but I need to make tweaks to the string for it to pass validation.

The following is done in JavaScript.

jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/'/g, '"');
jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/: datetime/g, ': "datetime');
jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/\),/g, ')",');
JSON.parse(jetsonStats) // Success

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. jetson = jtop()
   jetson.start()
   print(jetson.stats)
   jetson.close()

2. Copy string to an online validator such as https://jsonlint.com/ Notice it does not pass.

3. Pass string to Node.JS

   jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/'/g, '"');
   jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/: datetime/g, ': "datetime');
   jetsonStats = jetsonStats.replace(/\),/g, ')",');
   console.debug(jetsonStats)
   JSON.parse(jetsonStats)

4. Notice it now passes the online validator https://jsonlint.com/

Board

There is now a new function

jetson.json()
