@brief applies a JSON Merge Patch
The merge patch format is primarily intended for use with the HTTP PATCH
method as a means of describing a set of modifications to a target
resource's content. This function applies a merge patch to the current
JSON value.
The function implements the following algorithm from Section 2 of
[RFC 7396 (JSON Merge Patch)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396):
```
define MergePatch(Target, Patch):
if Patch is an Object:
if Target is not an Object:
Target = {} // Ignore the contents and set it to an empty Object
for each Name/Value pair in Patch:
if Value is null:
if Name exists in Target:
remove the Name/Value pair from Target
else:
Target[Name] = MergePatch(Target[Name], Value)
return Target
else:
return Patch
```
Thereby, `Target` is the current object; that is, the patch is applied to
the current value.
@param[in] patch the patch to apply
@complexity Linear in the lengths of @a patch.
@liveexample{The following code shows how a JSON Merge Patch is applied to
a JSON document.,merge_patch}
@sa @ref patch -- apply a JSON patch
@sa [RFC 7396 (JSON Merge Patch)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396)
@since version 3.0.0
