[docs] [issue10038] json.loads() on str should return unicode, not str

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

To mitigate possible negative impacts from changing the return type, consider adding a parse_string hook that lets users control the return type:

   json.loads(f, parse_int=decimal.Decimal, parse_string=repr)
