Subject: [PATCH] fix(json): add multi-platform JSON library compatibility

- Add flexible JSON detection (cjson preferred, dkjson fallback)
- Update main.lua and mail.lua with found_cjson detection
- Update start.sh to check both JSON libraries
- Enables furt to run on Arch Linux without manual patches
- Maintains API compatibility with existing cjson usage

Fixes #108
