Its currently a awkward to use Serializer component to send a `JsonResponse`.

I have tried two approaches

1. use `Serializer::normalize` and `JsonResponse`
1. use `Serializer::serialize` and a plain `Response`, and set the `content-type`

In either cases there is need for a custom `json` function so as not to repeat yourself and there are disadvantages.

1. In the first case you are only partly using `Serializer` and any custom `Encoder` would be skipped
1. In the second you are not making use of `JsonResponse`, particular disadvantage if you want to support JSONP.

This new `json` method uses the serializer component is enabled it is used to generate the json data, and falls back to normal `JsonResponse` when its not.
