Added Subselectors

It now possible to select multiple independent paths and join
their results into a single JSON document.

For example, given the following JSON

    {
      "info": {
        "friends": [
          {"first": "Dale", "last": "Murphy", "age": 44},
          {"first": "Roger", "last": "Craig", "age": 68},
          {"first": "Jane", "last": "Murphy", "age": 47}
        ]
      }
    }

The path `[info.friends.0.first,info.friends.1.last]` returns

    ["Dale","Craig"]

Or path `{info.friends.0.first,info.friends.1.last}` returns

    {"first":"Dale","last":"Craig"}

You can also rename Object members such as

`{"alt1":info.friends.0.first,"alt2":info.friends.1.last}` returns

    {"alt1":"Dale","alt2":"Craig"}

Finally you can combine this with any GJSON component

`info.friends.[0.first,1.age]` returns

    ["Dale",68]

This feature was request by @errashe in issue #113.
