### Canonical JSON
We define the canonical JSON encoding for a value to be the shortest
To ensure that all implementations use the same JSON encoding we define
"Canonical JSON". This should not be confused with other uses of
"Canonical JSON" outside of the specification.
We define this encoding for a value to be the shortest
UTF-8 JSON encoding with dictionary keys lexicographically sorted by
Unicode codepoint. Numbers in the JSON must be integers in the range
`[-(2**53)+1, (2**53)-1]`.
