re escaping special chars in json values

[Reaster0]

Hi, i've found a weird behaviour,
when querying a table and converting it to a JSON_TABLE, if a textual row inside of it contain a \n, it will be re escaped (so it will be given as "\\n"), something that it don't do when querying non JSON_TABLE textual values

an example:

rawQuery(
SELECT * FROM JSON_TABLE(
(
SELECT content as json
FROM logs_related_files
WHERE log_id = ?
LIMIT 1
),
'$[*]' COLUMNS (
name VARCHAR(255) PATH '$.name',
content LONGTEXT PATH '$.content',
contentType VARCHAR(255) PATH '$.contentType'
)
) as files
WHERE name = ?
LIMIT 1 , [id, name])
.then((res) => {
if (res[0].length == 0)
return response.status(404).send("Not found");
return res[0][0];
})
.catch((e) => {
console.log(e.message);
return response.status(400).send(e.message);
});

in this case, even if in "content" the value is "this is a\ntest" (notice the \n)
and i can confirm it by running the exact same sql query using a mysql cli client

the driver will give me a content containing "this is a \\ntest" (notice the \\n)

this issue doesn't appear if i query a non JSON_TABLE value (i get a correct "this is a \ntest" using the driver)

so for now i'm running a replace on the result to reset the correct antislash value but i would prefer not to ducktape it :')

thanks for your hardwork!
