Proposal: Remove "json" prefix from symbol names in the json package.

[m-kru]

The json prefix in symbol names in the json package seems to be redundant. If one wants to indicate that symbols come from the json package then he can use:

library json;
   use json.json;

and later refer to them as json.symbol. Right now, even if the scope is small, one has to write long names. In such case the json_ctx also seems to be artificial. One can simply use for example json.IsBoolean.

Yes I think the prefix can be removed. It was from a time, when I was no so deeply into VHDL.
It's always a question on how to design an API for readability.

Having to many overloads of functions and procedures because of VHDLs great feature of overload resolution is allowing to create small and tiny subprograms, on the other hand it might be confusing if the context is not clear.

But your example of a use-statement allows for beginners to be more explicit and experts to be more implicit.

Currently, I'm quite blocked with other tasks. Might you want to propose a PR for this. I'll review and accept the proposed change.
