library.json is a library manifest file which can be used by the different tools/managers to organise embedded libraries. How does this look from CLI:

$ platformio lib search "mqtt"
# Found ... libraries:

# [ ID  ] Name             Compatibility         "Authors": Description
# -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Does merging this mean that PlatformIO will update the library to the latest master? That'd be great.

I have no idea - @ivankravets, I assume by accepting this file, I'll also need to keep it in sync with the library.properties file when I cut new releases?
