--drop option?

[brianloveswords]

Might be neat to have something like

$ echo '{"valuable":"keep me!", "garbage":"drop me!", "trash":"me too!"}' | jsonfilter --drop garbage,trash

{"valuable":"keep me!"}

Not sure on exact syntax, or if this should actually be a different module (or if that different module already exists!)

ended up writing https://www.npmjs.org/package/jsonmap, though it's a whitelist instead of a droplist... i'll keep this open for future consideration

@maxogden @brianloveswords I think jsonmap solves it pretty well, although I guess not quite as concisely as the original proposal.

$ echo '{"valuable":"keep me!", "garbage":"drop me!", "trash":"me too!"}' | jsonmap "delete this.garbage; delete this.trash;"
