Refactor parse_command

parse_command returns a struct that contains useful information about
the result of a command as a whole (instead of the intermediate
representation used during parsing).

parse_command now requires the caller to allocate the yajl_gen used for
generating a json reply. This is passed as the second parameter to
parse_command. If NULL is passed, no json reply will be generated.
