This is to add RFC6902 and RFC7386 JSON Patch capabilities as well as helpers. evanphx/json-patch provides utilities to create and apply patches and better test coverage compared with the single method in pkg/util/merge. JSON Patch is currently used by kubectl --patch and --override and this is a drop in replacement. It will soon be used by apiserver PATCH verb #4578 and config reconciliation #1702.
