Use system-provided nlohmann_json if available

Otherwise, maintain current behavior of using the bundled version.

This is a header-only library, so I don't see how using the system provided version would be needed.

Were you trying to get a build working without the vendor directory (submodules)?

Thanks for triaging all of these old tickets, @pietern.

Indeed I was. I'd love to see this package available as an OS package someday, and some platforms look poorly on bundled software. My goal was to allow use of the system package while still supporting the bundling approach you prefer as the default.
