Subject: Add JSON coercion support for non-JSON plist types

- Add PLIST_OPT_COERCE option to coerce PLIST_DATE, PLIST_DATA, and PLIST_UID to JSON-compatible types (ISO 8601 strings, Base64 strings, and integers)
- Add plist_to_json_with_options() function to allow passing coercion options (and others)
- Update plist_write_to_string() and plist_write_to_stream() to support coercion option
- Add --coerce flag to plistutil for JSON output
- Create plist2json symlink that automatically enables coercion when invoked
