Parse JSON with more helpful errors.

@param string - A valid JSON string.
@param reviver - Prescribes how the value originally produced by parsing is transformed, before being returned. See [`JSON.parse` docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/parse#Using_the_reviver_parameter
) for more.
@param filename - The filename displayed in the error message.
@returns A parsed JSON object.
@throws A {@link JSONError} when there is a parsing error.

@example
```
