gvariant_deserialize_data

Converts a JSON string to a `GVariant` value.

This function works exactly like [func@Json.gvariant_deserialize], but takes a JSON encoded string instead.

The string is first converted to a [struct@Json.Node] using [class@Json.Parser], and then `json_gvariant_deserialize` is called on the node.

The returned variant has a floating reference that will need to be sunk by the caller code.

Example: GVariant deserialization (string):

public static int main (string[] args) {
	
	try {
		string data = """{ "a" : 3, "b" : 4 }""";

		// Deserialization:
		Variant variant = Json.gvariant_deserialize_data (data, -1, null);
		print (variant.print (true));
		print ("\n");
	} catch (Error e) {
		assert_not_reached ();
	}

	return 0;
}
