I don't think dumpf should support encoding parameter.

1. Output is ASCII unless `ensure_ascii=True` is specified.
2. Writing new JSON file with obsolete spec is not recommended.
3. If user really need it, they can write obsolete JSON by `dump` or
`dumps` anyway.

I against adding `encoding` parameter to dumpf and loadf. They are
just shortcut for common cases.
