    object: Replace the name pointer in the members list
    
    When calling g_hash_table_replace() we also free the string holding the
    member name. This means that the const gchar* pointer we store inside
    the list of ordered member names now points to garbage - so if somebody
    tries to iterate over the members list it will get random values instead
    of a valid C string.
    
    Since we guaranteed insertion order, if we replace the contents of a
    JsonObject member we need to find the right pointer and replace it: just
    removing and prepending won't do.
