[Bug] JSON export of Pattern Data contains undesired characters

Operating System

Linux

What's the issue you encountered?

Exported string Pattern Data in JSON file contains the complete contents of the "Value" column field with quotation marks and a trailing space in URL-encoded form:

A similar observation can be made with strings containing zero bytes, where the backlash-representation of the Pattern Data display is encoded in the JSON data.

Expected behaviour: JSON field just contains the URL-encoded data.

How can the issue be reproduced?

Test case containing file i as data provider, i.hexproj as ImHex project with pattern and i.json as exported data: test.zip

General procedure to reproduce:

• Load data provider containing string/char data.
• set up a pattern file to read some char name[len] @ addr
• run pattern
• observe Pattern Data output value field and compare with exported JSON

ImHex Version

v1.32.2

ImHex Build Type

• [ ] Nightly or built from sources

Installation type

I have a similar experience except I am running on windows 10 ans using the plcli in format mode. when i run the pattern in Imhex the output string looks fine:

however the json output I get from plcli is:

{
    "test": {
        "array": [
            135,
            121,
            152,
            135
        ],
        "chars": "-------%20With%20%23define%20%3A----------"
    }
}

Also I exported to json the data in imhex and got this output:

{
    "test": {
        "array": [
            135,
            121,
            152,
            135
        ],
        "chars": "%22-------%20With%20%23define%20%3A----------%22%20"
    }
}

Probably it's caused because we take the whole displayed string instead of the inner value

Also present in yaml and HTML strings and magics (but not on static strings, I'd say)
