No escaping of XML characters in PList output

[spiralx]

When converting a JSON file to a PList, the string values in JSON aren't being escaped when they are converted to string tags in the PList. E.g. if I convert one of my package.json files with this line

"author": "James Skinner <[email protected]> (https://github.com/spiralx)",

then in the output PList it becomes

<string>James Skinner <[email protected]> (https://github.com/spiralx)</string>

which contains < and > instead of their XML entities, and makes the whole PList an invalid document. At the very least it should escape <, > and &.

Oddly enough when I convert the same package.json to XML, the output is escaped fine:

<author>James Skinner &lt;[email protected]&gt; (https://github.com/spiralx)</author>

I've submitted a pull request to the plist module with a fix, but it looks pretty quiet there to me...

I'm going to try and find another suitable PList parser/builder package that can be dropped in now, there's a few around.
