Add custom to_json and from_json functions for ExperimentalFeature

nix show-config --json was serializing experimental features as ints.
nlohmann::json will automatically use these definitions to serialize
and deserialize ExperimentalFeatures.

Strictly, we don't use the from_json instance yet, it's provided for
completeness and hopefully future use.
