Escapes are not being persisted

Hello! Thank you for the jpp tool - the formatting is great :)

I've noticed that escaped strings aren't being correctly handled:

$ echo '{"x": "\\\\w+"}' | jpp
{"x": "\w+"}

$ echo '{"x": "\\\\w+"}' | jpp | jpp
parse error: Invalid json input

$ echo '{"x": "\\\\w+"}' | jq .
{
  "x": "\\w+"
}

as a workaround I'm doing this to over-escape the input:

$ echo '{"x": "\\w"}' | sed -e 's^\\^\\\\\\\\^g' | jpp

Thank you for reporting! I'll take a look :)
