ensure json-read returns cargo manifest as an alist

[bassettmb]

json-read from json.el can return a non-alist value when json-object-type is set to a value distinct from 'alist. Since the let-alist macro expects to receive an alist, flycheck-rust-get-cargo-targets will raise a wrong-type-argument error and prevent flycheck-rust from loading when json-object-type is not 'alist. (In my case, json-object-type was set to 'hash-table either by default or by some other package.)

Any way to get this merged, @lunaryorn @fmdkdd ?

I'm sorry but I can't help you. I do not maintain this repository or any other in this organisation since several years ago.

I've unsubscribed from this issue, so please mention me if you'd like me to reply.

Are there maintainers for this package? I would love to take over the maintenance if that's the case. Mentioning @lebensterben since he showed interest in maintaining this package as well (from gitter).

Any thoughts? @cpitclaudel @fmdkdd

[lebensterben]

I'm proficient in both elisp and rust. If new maintainers are needed, I can take the job.

@cpitclaudel Friendly ping! :)

@jcs090218 Seems I'm the primary maintainer of Flycheck these days, and I've just added you to the flycheck-rust team. I don't know much about Rust linters, but I'm here as well if needed for something.

@bbatsov Thank you!
