Description:
------------
Calling get_browser() with a user-agent of:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36

Returns non-utf8 characters in the `browser_name_regex` field. See:

stdClass Object ( [browser_name_regex] => �^mozilla/5\.0 \(.*mac os x 10_9.*\) applewebkit/.* \(khtml, like gecko\).*chrome/35\..*safari/.*$� 

This breaks json_decode() trying to store it.

Expected result:
----------------
Never return non-utf8 characters. This breaks json_decode();

Brain fart there, that should have been json_encode() trying to store it.
