function views_ajax_render

Simple render function to make sure output is what we want.

This function renders an object into JSON, and that object contains commands to the ajax response parser on the other side. The actual commands that can be sent are completely dependent upon the client javascript parser, which can be anything, but this function assumes that 'display', at least, will be displayed in some kind of ajax spot or popup.
