VCL-997
Added subroutines:
DataStructure.pm::get_reservation_info_json_string
OS.pm::get_reservation_info_json_file_path
OS.pm::create_reservation_info_json_file
OS.pm::delete_reservation_info_json_file
Windows.pm::get_reservation_info_json_file_path
utils.pm::prune_array_reference
utils.pm::prune_hash_child_references
utils.pm::prune_hash_reference

OS.pm::create_reservation_info_json_file gets called from reserved.pm::process only if a variable named 'enable_experimental_features' is true in the database.

This file is removed when a computer is sanitized in reclaim.pm::call_os_sanitize.

> It would be useful if a file was created on loaded computers containing various aspects of the reservation.  Such a file could be used by post-load, post-reserve, and other scripts to customize the computer based on reservation information such as user accounts, account passwords, etc.
> One option would be a simple text file with key-value pairs.  This is not optimal.  Something more structured such as JSON would be better.
