/**
* Finds a target in document specified by JSON Pointer. Also returns the
* object containing the target and key used to reference that object.
*
* Throws Error('NOT_FOUND') if pointer does not result into a value in the middle
* of the path. If the last element of the path does not result into a value, the
* lookup succeeds with `val` set to `undefined`. It can be used to discriminate
* missing values, because `undefined` is not a valid JSON value.
*
* If last element in array is targeted using "-", e.g. "/arr/-", use
* `isArrayEnd` to verify that:
*
* ```js
* const ref = find({arr: [1, 2, 3], ['arr', '-']});
* if (isArrayReference(ref)) {
* if (isArrayEnd(ref)) {
* // ...
* }
* }
* ```
*
* @param skipLast Number of steps to skip at the end. Useful to find reference of
* parent step, without constructing a new `Path` array.
