That would be an end-goal but we are not fully there yet. Even with the
rework some parts of the library for legacy compatibility still depend on
jansson, though the majority of the code will compile without it. Therefore
this dependency should be kept in the CI beyond this release, as we weren't
planning on doing the additional work to completely replace it - though we
can re-evaluate that if people think that it's important to remove the
dependency completely.
