I forgot to add, there will be tooling to generate these json files,
possibly a simple extension to the existing tool that generates layer
config. Everything in the json can be obtained programmatically from
an active yocto build (except bitbake build targets maybe, but even
that could be added to config templates), so beginners don't have to
wrestle with json syntax or particularities of specific entries in it.
