.github, config, json, nimble: bump Nim from 1.6.12 to 2.0.0

[ee7]

See the release blog posts rc1 and rc2 and 2.0, detailed changelog, and changes since 1.6.12.

config.nims changes:

• Remove strictEffects, which Nim 2.0 enables by default.
• Disable noisy ProveInit and Uninit warnings for now.
• Enable strictDefs unconditionally. It was previously conditional to support older versions of Nim that lacked strictDefs.

Update patched stdlib json and parsejson.

In the tests, reflect a Nim 2.0 change to imports. From the changes affecting backward compatibility:

Relative imports will not resolve to searched paths anymore, e.g. import ./tables now reports an error properly.

---

To-do:

• Wait for Nim 2.0 release
• Resolve nimble test errors, e.g.:
  tests/all_tests.nim(2, 11) Error: cannot open file: ./helpers
• Windows: resolve uuids error (due to nim-lang/Nim@612abda):
  C:\Users\runneradmin\.nimble\pkgs2\uuids-0.1.11-393f5fcefbc8ad3cf167e59760144208ff8f9f76\uuids\urandom.nim(15, 8) Error: undeclared identifier: 'useWinUnicode'
  I've created pragmagic/uuids#9, but that may not be sufficient, and long-term I'd like to do uuid: use best practices for UUID generation #424 instead
• Update patched json.nim and parsejson.nim
• Windows: resolve patching error:

I have no idea why this would cause the parseopt3 patching to fail on Windows.

Edit: maybe something in nim-lang/Nim@f7c203f#diff-8f98e7617bc9dd47ac179ddec678781d48d70e7f7b9f37f76298ef643f82c690

Edit2: maybe the hash function now differs between Linux and Windows?
