jc - JSON Convert stat command output parser

The xxx_epoch calculated timestamp fields are naive. (i.e. based on the local time of the system the parser is run on)

The xxx_epoch_utc calculated timestamp fields are timezone-aware and are only available if the timezone field is UTC.

Usage (cli):

$ stat * | jc --stat

or

$ jc stat *

Usage (module):

import jc
result = jc.parse('stat', stat_command_output)
