Changes for version 1.02 - 2025-10-16

  • Maintenance
    • Promote the release version to 1.02 to ensure Perl's version parsing keeps this release newer than the historical 0.99.
  • Feature
    • Added fromjson() helper to decode JSON text back into native data structures, mirroring jq's behaviour and complementing tojson().
    • Implemented jq's `//` alternative operator so pipelines can fall back to secondary expressions when the primary value is null or missing.
  • Tests
    • Added regression coverage asserting fromjson() handles objects, arrays, invalid JSON text, and null propagation.
    • Added coalesce-focused regression tests covering literals, booleans, and chained fallbacks.
  • Docs
    • Documented fromjson() across README, CLI helper listings, and module POD.
    • Documented the new alternative operator in README, CLI help, and module POD alongside examples.
