bool OEHeterogenMetadataFromJson(OEHeterogenMetadata& metadata,
                                 const std::string& json)

Populates an OEHeterogenMetadata object from a JSON-formatted string. The function recognizes the following fields in the JSON object:

Field	Type	Description
`Title`	string	Human-readable title of the heterogen.
`Id`	string	Identifier for the heterogen (e.g. PDB ligand code).
`Smiles`	string	SMILES representation of the heterogen.
`Type`	string	Heterogen component type name, resolved via `OEGetHeterogenTypeID`.
`Tautomers`	array of strings	SMILES strings of known tautomeric forms of the heterogen.

Unrecognized or missing fields are silently ignored. Returns true if the JSON string was successfully parsed as an object; returns false if the string is not valid JSON or does not represent a JSON object.
