Making parse more robust

[rek]

This was failing when the content of JSON responses was not JSON.

Hi @rek, thanks for your contribution.

The behavior of jQuery (doc here under dataType) is to reject malformed JSON and throw a parse error. Changing this behavior might break existing apps using najax. Would it be possible for you to use najax with a plain text dataType and parse JSON in your own code?

Ahh ok, interesting. I'll give that shot :) Thanks.

@rek was on the right track here. jQuery actually doesn't allow the parse error to bubble up, and only returns it to the success handler. #46 Attempts to emulate that behavior.

@rek @JoshuaCWebDeveloper is this superseded by #56?

Ahh I have no idea, was a while ago. I am happy to close this PR now though, it's a touch old.
