Add methods to model.Duration for JSON marshalling and unmarshalling

Add methods to model.Duration structs to allow them to be serialized
and unserialized to/from JSON. This helps downstream consumers of the
structs that attempt to use them in objects that are expected to be
able to be represented as JSON (such as Cortex).
