> probably isn't quite right on Windows: `json-serialize` is pure so it will be called at compile time and the result, "true", used in the code (actually not even that since the result is never used). Thus, if libjansson could not be loaded during actual Emacs use (as opposed to when Emacs was built), this would never be detected and json-available-p would still return t.

Yes, you are right.  But please come up with a smaller changeset which
only changes what strictly needs to be changed.  Or if you want, I can
do this myself.

AFAIU, we just need a C implementation of json-available-p, since
doing this in Lisp doesn't work.  So that's the change I expect,
nothing more, nothing less.  Like we do with other optional libraries
and features, there's more than enough examples in the codebase.

Thanks.
