After shipping condense-json 1.0 I started integrating it into LLM, and found there were some desirable new features already:

• Replacements object can now include values other than strings. These will be identified and used as structural replacements by condense_json() and uncondense_json(). #8
• Objects can be used as the basis for merge operations. condense_json() will identify if there are objects that are a close match and will store instructions for keys to update or delete. uncondense_json() can then apply these merges.

I also added some round-trip tests using the Hypothesis property-based Python testing library.
