remove JsonPathInst, instead move find functionality to JsonPath.

no longer export all macros, add comments to the remaining ones.
Implement `FromStr` and `TryFrom<&str` for JsonPath (as the internet is not sure which is better)
fix various clippy things.

 ### Find
 
-there are 3 different functions to find data inside a `value`.
+there are 4 different functions to find data inside a `value`.
 All take references, to increase reusability. Especially json parsing and jsonpath parsing can take significant time, compared to a simple find.
 
-The methods `find`, `find_as_path` and `find_slice` take the same inputs, but handle them differently depending on your usecase. They are further described in the [docs](https://docs.rs/jsonpath-rust/latest/jsonpath_rust/index.html#functions).
