Problem
Right now when set cannot marshal the incoming string data into an object or array
it treats the result as a string, However, it should fail for malformed JSON rather
than allowing the malformed JSON to be added as a string value for the given
property key.
Solution
Fail if the marshaling fails when the string starts with either a
{
or a[
indicating thatthe input string should be a JSON object or array respectively.
Result
Better error signaling to users when invalid JSON is given.
