Add support for Redis-native JSON operations

[samigeorgiev]

Redis Stack supports storing native JSON documents which can be indexed and searched. Jedis supports it too. Do you plan to implement this Redis operations?

Initially, we decided against module support because modules and clients weren't coupled and we do not have the bandwidth to support any kind of module. In the past year, Redis merged their modules into Redis itself and now everything is sitting in the core.

While I'd appreciate JSON support from a technological perspective, in reality we cannot build that functionality ourselves and we cannot more functionality to maintain without a higher involvement of the community committing to development and maintenance.

The Redis team is actively working on contributing JSON support, now that both the Jedis and the Lettuce drivers support JSON. If you have some use-case examples that you think we need to definitely consider, please let us know.

@tishun I've assigned the ticket to you. Let's have a chat soon about the design and iterative planning how to get going here (and what use-cases we would like to support).

Absolutely. I wanted to have something I've spent some time thinking on so we can discuss it.
