Read json produced by wiktextract

[holyspiritomb]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. wiktextract is a tool for extracting data from xml dumps of the English-language Wiktionary. It is useful for filtering data such that the output yields machine-readable one-directional (lang)-to-English bilingual dictionaries in jsonl format, where a headword's entry contains data for all of its possible senses, all of its inflections, and example usage. Inflections have their own entries as well that say which inflection to what headword.

Currently, pyglossary doesn't support reading these files.

**Describe the solution you'd like **

I'd like pyglossary to support reading these specific jsonl files for conversion to other formats, if possible with an option to list inflections in headwords' definitions in the output.

Provide links to the official website and/or download page of the related software or format.

Provide sample file(s) for the format/feature you want to be supported

Full sized file I'd ultimately like to convert to stardict and mobi: Latin-to-English (~860MB) Smaller versions of above file for testing: Latin-to-English 1.1MB, Latin-to-English first ten entries

I'd like to mention that calling this file "a json file" is a mistake. Every line is a json, but the whole file is not a valid json. We should call it "json-lines" or something like that.

I pushed to master branch. Please give it a try.
