Description:
------------
When decoding a json string that contains the hex code for double quote character (") it will not decode properly. I believe this is because it is converting it to a " before looking at the syntax and converting the json to php.

JSON doesn't support \x escapes, so it's invalid JSON by definition, hence why json_decode() returns null. Decoding the valid JSON \u0022 works fine.
