class val JSONParseLimits
  """
  Resource bounds for `JSONTokenParser` over untrusted input.

  These bound the parser's own working memory: the container-depth
  stack, and the single string or number it is part-way through. They
  do not bound how much a `JSONReassembler` — or your own notifier —
  chooses to retain; that memory is the caller's choice, so a
  raw-notifier consumer that drops the tokens it doesn't need stays
  flat no matter how large the document.

  The default constructor applies conservative limits; raise a
  specific bound when a trusted source legitimately has a large value
  or deep nesting, or use `unlimited()` for fully trusted input.

  ```pony
  let parser = JSONTokenParser(notify) // default limits
  let parser = JSONTokenParser(notify, JSONParseLimits(where max_depth' = 32))
  let parser = JSONTokenParser(notify, JSONParseLimits.unlimited())
  ```

    bytes between the quotes, before any escapes are decoded).
