Error when resolving `.length()` expression in 2.5.0

[lukas-krecan]

After upgrading to 2.5.0, this code started to return strange results

        String json = "{\n" +
            "    \"store\": {\n" +
            "        \"book\": [\n" +
            "            {\n" +
            "                \"category\": \"reference\"\n" +
            "            },\n" +
            "            {\n" +
            "                \"category\": \"fiction\"\n" +
            "            },\n" +
            "            {\n" +
            "                \"category\": \"fiction\"\n" +
            "            },\n" +
            "            {\n" +
            "                \"category\": \"fiction\"\n" +
            "            }\n" +
            "        ]\n" +
            "    },\n" +
            "    \"expensive\": 10\n" +
            "}";


        Object result = using(Configuration.defaultConfiguration())
            .parse(json)
            .read("$..book.length()");
        System.out.println(result);

In 2.4.0 it returns an array containing number 4, in 2.5.0 it returns 2.

This regression was intoduced by #377. @mgreenwood1001, interested in taking a look?

@kallestenflo please see the bugfix for length()

@kallestenflo @mgreenwood1001 Thanks for the fix.
Given that #651 has been merged, when can we expect the fix to be available in a release version?

Fixed in 2.6.0
