Edit parts of inconsistently formatted json.

It's just a bit slower that doint this by hand!

# matcher

Now you can easly select **nodes** in json tree

syntax:

selector | action | node type
---------|--------|-------
  *| select **all** items in current node| -
 [n] | select **n-th** item of curent node| array
 {n} | select **n-th** item of curent node| object
 key | select node chilld **by name**| object
"key"| select node chilld **by name**| object
 \>  | mark current node as seleced |-


example 1: 

```
key > [0]
```

this pattern will match one element by:

1. selecting "key" element in root node (assuring that is an object)
2. select first element in it (assumintg its and array) 

example 2: 

```
name > *
```

this pattern will match multiple elements by:

1. selecting "name" element in root node (assuring that is an object)
2. select all element in it
