[Akka HTTP] Respond with a partially streamed JSON object

[na...@bigpanda.io]

I am trying to respond with a JSON object which has some strict values and some streamed values

```

{

  "total_results": 15,

  "items": [

    // Streamed JSON objects

  ]

}

```

Is there a way to respond like this without injecting the surrounding data into the Source?

I am currently using Play-Json that doesn't support this option natively

Nested streaming is somewhat tricky.

You could achieve the actual streaming semantics with injecting the things around it,

via something like `Source(the "header") concat streamingSource concat Source(“the ending ]]}]]}]”)`

We have tools coming for streaming nested parsing, but not rendering so far.
