JSON Object Manifest for Data Description and Parsing

// When a boxed property is passed in, it should have quotes of some
// kind around it.
//
// For instance:
// 		MyValues['Name']
// 		MyValues["Age"]
// 		MyValues[`Cost`]
//
// This function removes the wrapping quotes.
//
// Please note it *DOES NOT PARSE* template literals, so backticks just
// end up doing the same thing as other quote types.
//
// TODO: Should template literals be processed?  If so what state do they have access to?  That should happen here if so.
// TODO: Make a simple class include library with these
