…'show ip route vrf all json'
Command 'show ip route vrf <vrf_name> json' returns a valid json object,
however if instead of <vrf_name> we specify 'all', we get an invalid json
object, like:
{//vrf1 routes}{//vrf2 routes}{vrf3 routes}
After the fix:
{"vrf1":{//vrf1 routes},"vrf2:{//vrf2 routes},"vrf3":{//vrf3 routes}}
Which is a valid json object, that can be parsed effectively using built-in
modules. The rest of the commands remains unaffected and behave the same.

Similarly to issue mentioned here: #15277, the 'show ip route vrf all json' command doesn't work as expected, because it doesn't return a valid json object.
Command 'show ip route vrf <vrf_name> json' returns a valid json object, however for multiple vrfs the output looks like this:
{//vrf1 routes}{//vrf2 routes}{//vrf3 routes}
After the fix we get:
{"vrf1":{//vrf1 routes},"vrf2:{//vrf2 routes},"vrf3":{//vrf3 routes}}
Which is a valid json object, that can be parsed effectively using built-in modules. That makes a big difference for anyone that wants to take the json outputs for multiple vrfs and make use of them. The rest of the commands remain unaffected and behave the same.
