Parsing JSON - arrays

It will be nice to have a way to walk through a set of items nested in all the item selector items.

I have started one custom data parser plugin that does that.
It basically extends the json data parser plugin, and then uses a given selector to unify its values across all the elements.

E.g. the following the original example, the following source configuration bits will extract the four items.

data_parser_plugin: json_subitem
item_selector: Centers
subitem_selector: Sets

On the ideal world, jq pipelines can do the work once, but if the source endpoints cannot be changed, something like this data parser helps to produce a set that is sensible to walk.

- 3f81967 #3239180: Start a JSON subitems data parser

I'm using the code above and it works well.

The parser was not working when using a pager because getSourceData always assumed we wanted the subitems. I added a check for the item selector parameter being the data item selector before getting subitems. I also removed the getSourceData function return type since it could be anything as with the parent function.
