#10022: json_parser_write inconditionally converts CP1252 to escaped unicode

Comment (by anonymous):

 Now comment in the code states:
 "This assumes an ASCII superset. But so does everything in PTree."

 A PTree is, as far as used to serialize / parse JSON, fine with handling
 UTF-8 encoded values.

 And:
 "We escape everything outside ASCII, because this code can't handle high
 unicode characters."

 Strange, the JSON generated is parsed fine using boost and the resulting
 PTree contains correctly encoded values again.
