JSON output no longer escapes non-ASCII characters, new --ascii option

Browse source 
sqlite-utils query/rows/search/tables/views/triggers/indexes/memory now
output JSON with ensure_ascii=False, so unicode text like 日本語 is emitted
directly instead of as \uXXXX escape sequences. This matches how values
were already stored on insert (jsonify_if_needed) and how CSV/TSV output
already behaved.

A new --ascii flag on all of those commands restores the previous escaped
output, for systems that cannot handle UTF-8.

Also applies ensure_ascii=False to the convert --multi --dry-run preview
(matching what would actually be stored) and to plugins listing output.
