Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
vimspector ignores comments in JSON (// comment), but cmake4vim doesn't so it complains about parsing the JSON file when trying to run a target.

Describe the solution you'd like
Ignore the content after //, but don't delete it when writing .vimspector.json again.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Not writing comments.

Unfortunately json standard doesn't support comments.

As per Standard JSON rules, There is no official support for Comments in JSON content.

I read vimspector config to json dictionary and write it also as json, so in case of C style comments it returns error

I know, but vimspector explicitly supports C styled comments

The JSON configuration file allows C-style comments:

// comment to end of line ...
/* inline comment ... */

So we do have vimspector support, but we also have a missing feature.

Yes I know, honestly I don't know the simple way how to support comments. Looks like for that I need to change the system of reading/writing vimspector config file.
