nlohmann-json: Add symlink to json.hpp and update to 3.3.0

nlohmann-json has examples in their repo that refer to the header as json.hpp directly, as such many packages that require nlohmann-json expect json.hpp and not nlohmann/json.hpp as the cmake file installs. Create symlink so that access is available by either option. Also update to release 3.3.0.

Hi James

It seems this srcrev does not exist on master branch but on develop branch probably
we need to add branch=develop to SRC_URI as well.
