c-nouveau-mode ;-)

Js-json-mode inherits from js-mode, which complicates the matter if tree-sitter 
is enabled for js-mode… Probably should remove tree-sitter from js-json-mode. 
Also if we decided cc-mode and tree-sitter should be mutually exclusive (which 
we kind of have), we should remove some cc-mode init in js-mode that runs even 
when tree-sitter is enabled.

The json-mode you mentioned is on ELPA, and is fairly small, we might be able 
to merge json-ts-mode with it. Simen, WDYT?

I can also do it, that’ll save us some patching and merging ;-)
