[0001-Fix-arglist-doc-of-json-parse-functions.patch (text/x-diff, attachment)]

[Message part 2 (text/plain, inline)]

Seen on latest master:

1. emacs -Q
2. C-h f json-parse-string RET

*Help* reports the following arglist:

  (json-parse-string &key (OBJECT-TYPE 'hash-table))

despite mention of the positional argument STRING in the rest of the
docstring.

Attached is a doc fix suggestion.

Thanks,
