Make readJson accept object_t

Redfish supports several type systems for json.  This makes parsing into
proper types a challenge.  Nlohmann supports 3 core data types,
nlohmann::json, which supports all json types (float, int, array,
object).  Nlohmann::json::object_t, which is a specific typedef of
std::map, and nlohmann::json::array_t, which is a specific typedef of
std::map.

Redfish allows reading our arrays of complex objects, similar to

NtpServers: [null, {}, "string"]

Which makes it a challenge to support.  This commit allows parsing out
objects as a nlohmann::object_t, which gives the ability to later use it
in a type safe manner, without having to call
get_ptr<nlohmann::json::object_t later>.

Tested:
Unit tests pass.
