Use @streamparser/json if the input is too large to fit in a V8 string

[mstange]

Here's a file which decompresses to a 605.8MB JSON string: etw-speedometer3.json.gz

Loading this file in Chrome, or in node via profiler-edit, fails due to the string size.

As a workaround we can use a streaming JSON parser which doesn't materialize a string for the entire thing.

Looks good to me personally, but Claude found a minor issue:

V8_STRING_MAX_SIZE is slightly above the actual V8 limit. The constant is 512 * 1024 * 1024 - 1 = (1 << 29) - 1 = 536870911. V8's String::kMaxLength under pointer compression (the typical config — buffer.constants.MAX_STRING_LENGTH exposes this in Node) is (1 << 29) - 24 = 536870888. That leaves a ~23-byte window where the size check passes but the ASCII-decoded string would still throw RangeError: Invalid string length. Practically irrelevant, but the fix is trivial: (1 << 29) - 24, or just import buffer.constants.MAX_STRING_LENGTH in Node paths.

Hah, oops.
