- Use ref types
- Support using rapidjson::Value in lieu of rapidjson::Document
- Use the existing JSON comparison util function in tests

This change adds a `DomBackend` interface and a `DomBackendRegistry` for backend discovery (currently not hooked up to anything) alongside a JSON backend implementation.
The JSON backend comes with a small suite of unit and performance tests. The unit tests validate generic DOM conversion to and from serialized JSON and rapidjson::Document objects (the support for which lives in `JsonSerializationUtils.h`).
The performance tests show a throughput decrease compared to directly using the rapidjson serializer when mirroring our current pattern of copying strings from the serialized JSON representation, but with the coming in-memory store we have the opportunity to keep the buffer in memory and deserialize in-situ using rapidjson's API, which is consistently at least 100MiB/s faster on my machine (Ryzen Threadripper 3970X). The first parameter is the nested object complexity (N*N, objects with N keys comprised of arrays with N values) and the second parameter is the base size of the strings within each entry of this object.

For `AZ::DOM::Document`, the current plan is to offer helper methods that can load from a file path or string using a given backend that can take advantage of in-place parsing by internally storing the serialized buffer.
