Minimal fix for the complaints about pickling Unicode objects. (SF
bugs #126161 and 123634). The solution doesn't use the unicode-escape encoding; that has other problems (it seems not 100% reversible). Rather, it transforms the input Unicode object slightly before encoding it using raw-unicode-escape, so that the decoding will reconstruct the original string: backslash and newline characters are translated into their \uXXXX counterparts. This is backwards incompatible for strings containing backslashes, but for some of those strings, the pickling was already broken.
