Summary: wrongh parsing of unicode escapes

Initial Comment:
There is:
    // seems that the wxMBConv classes always appends a NULL byte to
    // the converted buffer
    if ( len > 1 )    {
        len = len - 1;
    }
in jsonreader. cpp. This appears not true, at least in wxwidgets 2.9.3 on Windows, Consult:
http://docs.wxwidgets.org/2.8/wx_wxmbconv.html#wxmbconvtowchar

This causes json documents like 
["\u00ae"] 
to not parse correctly (the document contains the registered sign, "®") The error is:

JSON parse error Error: line 1, col 10 - String value: the UTF-8 stream is invalid
