Add option JSONCPP_WITH_STRICT_ISO

'-pedantic' issues all warnings demanded by strict ISO C/C++; rejecting
extensions that do not follow ISO C/C++. Without this option, certain GNU
extensions and traditional C/C++ features are supported as well.

With this option enabled building jsoncpp fails with the musl toolchain on
x86 because of an incompatible posix_memalign declaration [1]. Without
'-pedantic' there is no error anymore and jsoncpp builds fine.

Add an option JSONCPP_WITH_STRICT_ISO to disable compilation with '-pedantic'
with GCC. If jsoncpp is build with the JSONCPP_WITH_WARNING_AS_ERROR option
'-pedantic-errors' is used instead.
