Bug description: json_encode ignores null byte started keys in arrays
Description:
------------
If a key in an array starts with the null byte, json_encode ignores that
key=>value pair.
This seems wrong because json_encode doesn't care about null bytes
anywhere in the value (and neither does javascript, about keys or values).
Reproduce code:
---------------
//works as expected:
echo json_encode(array(0,"a\0b"=>1,"\0null-prefixed value"));
echo "\n\n";
//ignores second element whose key begins with null byte:
echo json_encode(array(0,"\0ab"=>1,"\0null-prefixed value"));
Expected result:
----------------
{"0":0,"a\0b":1,"1":"\0null-prefixed value"}
{"0":0,"\0ab":1,"1":"\0null-prefixed value"}
// \0 represents an actual null byte here
Actual result:
--------------
{"0":0,"a\0b":1,"1":"\0null-prefixed value"}
{"0":0,"1":"\0null-prefixed value"}
// \0 represents an actual null byte here
