[issue14455] plistlib unable to read json and binary plist files

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren added the comment:

I've attached a slightly updated version of the patch. The documentation now lists dump and load as the primary API, with the old API as a deprecated alternative.

The code hasn't been changed to relect this yet, but does contain a number of tweaks and bugfixes (and a new testcase that ensures that decoding UTF-16 and UTF-32 files actually works, after testing that those encodings are supported by Apple's tools).

NOTE: no review of this version is needed, I'm mostly posting as backup.
