We use the current parsing position instead. The line and column in the
error weren't used (nor very accurate to begin with) and the user can
easily compute them when needed. The line number calculation is kept
just in case but deprecated, for removal in Emacs 32.
* src/json.c (struct json_parser, json_parser_init): Update parser state.
(json_signal_error): New position computation.
(json_skip_whitespace_internal): Remove.

(json_parse_unicode, json_parse_string, json_parse_number)
(json_parse_value): Simplify and rewrite for efficiency.
(count_chars, count_newlines)
(string_byte_to_pos, string_byte_to_line)
(buffer_byte_to_pos, buffer_byte_to_line): New.
(Fjson_parse_string, Fjson_parse_buffer): Adapt to new parser state.
* test/src/json-tests.el (json-tests--parse-string-error-pos)
(json-tests--parse-buffer-error-pos, json-parse-error-position): New.
* etc/NEWS: Note deprecation of line and column.
