Strings added via an add patch are wrapped in '"' about json-patch

[SamJBarney]

I have not been able to reproduce this with a straight json!() object, which leads me to believe it occurring in json-patch.

What is this printf!? I wasn't able to reproduce the bug:

fn main() {
  let mut doc = serde_json::json!({ "first_name": "Andrew" });
  let p = serde_json::from_str(r#"[
        { "op": "test", "path": "/first_name", "value": "Andrew" },
        { "op": "add", "path": "/last_name", "value": "Marx" }
    ]"#).unwrap();

  json_patch::patch(&mut doc, &p).unwrap();

  println!("{}", doc.as_object().unwrap().get("last_name").unwrap().as_str().unwrap());
}

Prints Marx.

Note that the value you print is Option<&str>, so you need to unwrap the option first before you print it.

Sorry, meant to put println. Switching between languages.

You know, it's not failing now, but I spent an hour or so with a workaround in my crate. Sorry for the hassle.
