[issue3322] bugs in scanstring_str() and scanstring_unicode() of _json module

[Bob Ippolito]

Am I to understand that the bug here is that the C extension doesn't
validate input properly if you call into it directly? Without a test I'm
not entirely sure exactly how you could possibly get negative values
into those functions using the json module as-is.
