cli: output JSON without escaping non-ASCII characters

Browse source 
Closes #625.

json.dumps defaults to ensure_ascii=True, so output_rows emitted
'\u65e5\u672c\u8a9e' instead of '日本語' for Japanese.
The CSV path already shows the characters verbatim - the JSON path
should too. Pass ensure_ascii=False so the bytes match what the CSV
output (and the database itself) holds.
