#' @title Convert JSON results file case
#'
#' @description Convert a DQD JSON results file between camelcase and (all-caps) snakecase. Enables viewing of pre-v.2.1.0 results files in later DQD versions, and vice versa
#'
#' @param jsonFilePath  Path to the JSON results file to be converted
#' @param writeToFile   Whether or not to write the converted results back to a file (must be either TRUE or FALSE)
#' @param outputFolder  The folder to output the converted JSON results file to
#' @param outputFile    (OPTIONAL) File to write converted results JSON object to. Default is name of input file with a "_camel" or "_snake" postfix
#' @param targetCase    Case into which the results file parameters should be converted (must be either "camel" or "snake")
#'
#' @returns DQD results object (a named list)
