-- Lookup a field in a json table by key.
-- Json tables are assumed to be tables with lowercase keys. The `key` is automatically lowercased for the lookup.
-- If a value is a string, it's treated as an alias (another key), triggering a new lookup.
-- 
-- Returns the value by the specified key, or by aliased key if the value was an alias.
-- If value doesn't exist, returns `nil`.
