Is your feature request related to a problem?

Years ago all automation would happen through the JSONWireProtocol which was the predecessor of WebDriver. Today all browser and vendors support WebDriver and there is no reason to keep supporting JSONWireProtocol.

Describe the solution you'd like.

Remove all artifacts related to the JSONWireProtocol. Note that Appium still uses some JSONWP commands, e.g. isElementDisplayed so we should move them to the Appium protocol dcoument.

Describe alternatives you've considered.

We could keep it but I haven't seen anyone still using it.
