encoding/json/v2: rename `inline` tag option as `embed` The `inline` tag option is already used in existing Go code for purposes outside of what the "encoding/json" has provided. Adding support for it now unfortunately changes the semantics, which may existing code. Instead of the `inline` tag option, rename it as `embed`. This better matches the Go language feature of embedding, for which this is a logical extension of the same concept. Analyis of the Go module proxies shows that there are zero usages of `embed` within `json` tags. In contrast there are ~649k occurences (0.5%) of the `inline` tag out of a total of ~119M `json` field tags. Existing code can migrate by adding both `inline` and `embed`, then update to the latest version of the v2 module, and then later remove the use of `inline`.
