Why does `Json.stringify` return an `Either`?

Feature request

Current Behavior

Json.stringify is currently defined as: https://github.com/gcanti/fp-ts/blob/01b8661f2fa594d6f2010573f010d358e6808d13/src/Json.ts#L60

Desired Behavior

Coming from PureScript, I don't expect encoding a value as JSON to fail.

Suggested Solution

It seems to me rather than trying to encode any JS value as JSON, most use cases (and I could be wrong here) will be trying to encode a value that extends Json.Json. If that's the case, stringify could pretty safely be implemented as:

const stringify = <Value extends Json>(value: Value): string => JSON.stringify(value)

Of course I could be overlooking an obvious reason that the current implementation makes more sense. But if the current implementation is necessary for some cases, while the implementation suggested here would work for most, then I think it's worth providing both.

Who does this impact? Who is this for?

Maybe just me but I assume this would benefit all users as they could avoid having to deal with failure when encoding JSON.
