Original Text

   Example 3: depth=3

   To limit the depth level to the target resource plus two child
   resource layers, the value "3" is used.

      GET /restconf/data/example-jukebox:jukebox?depth=3 HTTP/1.1

   The server might respond as follows:

          },
          "playlist" : [
            {
              "name" : "Foo-One",
              "description" : "example playlist 1",
              "song" : {}

          }
        }
      }

Notes
-----
"artist" and "song" are defined as list.  Therefore, according to RFC 7951, they should be encoded as array instead of object.
