bug#20502: 24.4; json-pretty-print escapes forward slashes in strings

[Martin Algesten]

Whe doing "pretty-print-json" on this:

{"mimetype":"image/jpeg"}

I end up with this:

{
  "mimetype": "image\/jpeg"
}

Notice the incorrect escaping of /.

Thanks for the report.
By experiment, this is already fixed in current master.
