standard library json formatting does not handle Mapping types well #7

When trying to dump a LogMeta object to a JSON string, it errors because LogMeta objects subclass Mapping, not dict, which the json module does understand how to format into a JSON string.

Using Mapping instead of something like dict was intentional - log meta should be read-only.
