  Retrieves the Object inside this.
• public string? dup_string ()
  Gets a copy of the string value stored inside a Node .
• public bool equal (Node b)
  Check whether this and b are equal Nodes, meaning they have the same type and same values (checked recursively).
• public void free ()
  Frees the resources allocated by this.
• public weak Array? get_array ()
  Retrieves the Array stored inside a Node.
• public bool get_boolean ()
  Gets the boolean value stored inside a Node.
• public double get_double ()
  Gets the double value stored inside a Node.
• public int64 get_int ()
  Gets the integer value stored inside a Node.
• public NodeType get_node_type ()
  Retrieves the NodeType of this

  Gets the string value stored inside a Node.
• public Value get_value ()
  Retrieves a value from a Node and copies into value.
• public Type get_value_type ()
  Returns the Type of the payload of the node.
• public uint hash ()
  Calculate a hash value for the given this (a Node).
• public unowned Node init (NodeType type)
  Initializes a this to a specific type.
• public unowned Node init_array (Array? array)
  Initializes this to json_node_array and sets array into it.
• public unowned Node init_boolean (bool value)
  Initializes this to json_node_value and sets value into it.
