As explained in the previous patches, matching argument order of
'name, &value' to JSON's "name":value makes sense.  However,
while the last two patches were easy with Coccinelle, I ended up
doing this one all by hand.  Now all the visitor callbacks match
the main interface.

Opportunity to change to 'const char *const'.  I prefer that, because it
makes the fact that this is a pointer-* and not a binary operator-*
visually obvious.

Same elsewhere.

I checked the changes to this file carefully.  Can we rely on the
compiler to flag mistakes in the rest of the patch?

Hmm, I probably have churn later in the series.  Will fix.

C's (intentionally-loose) treatment of 'char *' like 'void *' is a bit
worrisome, but the fact that we have 'const' on only one of the two
swapped arguments was indeed enough to make the compiler complain about
mismatch in parameter types when trying to assign incorrectly-typed
static functions to the updated struct members.

Okay, I guess that's good enough.
