JSON-encoding a Symbol may result in invalid JSON #63

This happens because the value of a symbol is not escaped and e.g. double quotes in the input turn into unesaped double quotes in the output:

julia> JSON3.read(JSON3.write([Symbol("before \" after")]))
ERROR: ArgumentError: invalid JSON at byte position 12 while parsing type JSON3.Array: ExpectedComma

This can happen as a result of reading a JSON file:

julia> print(copy(JSON3.read("""{"before \\" after": true}""")))
Dict{Symbol,Any}(Symbol("before \" after") => true)

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
