dconf dump uses g_variant_print, which prints most Unicode characters verbatim. dconf2nix would read those and then use show to serialize the parsed strings. But show encodes Unicode characters as a decimal number preceded by a backslash, (e.g. \129315), which means nothing to Nix.
Let’s encode strings as UTF-8 when dumping them to Nix.
Also fix the test data from e2b5065718f4de55ce7afe4c8d385a123eaf3e1b, they were copied as reported by parserTraced but the actual data was mostly Unicode with few escape sequences.
