qjson: Don't crash when input exceeds nesting limit
We limit nesting depth and input size to defend against input triggering excessive heap or stack memory use (commit 29c75dd json-streamer: limit the maximum recursion depth and maximum token count). However, when the nesting limit is exceeded, parser_context_peek_token()'s assertion fails. Broken in commit 65c0f1e "json-parser: don't replicate tokens at each level of recursion". To reproduce stuff 1025 open braces or brackets into QMP. Fix by taking the error exit instead of the normal one.
