* lisp/json.el (json-encode-string): Clarify commentary.
(json--encode-stringlike): New function that covers a subset of
json-encode.
(json-encode-key): Use it for more efficient encoding and
validation, and to avoid mishandling confusable keys like boolean

(json-encode-array): Make it clearer that argument can be a list.
(json-encode): Reuse json-encode-keyword and json--encode-stringlike
for a subset of the dispatch logic.
(json-pretty-print): Ensure confusable keys like ":a" survive a
decoding/encoding roundtrip (bug#24252, bug#45032).
* test/lisp/json-tests.el (test-json-encode-string)
(test-json-encode-hash-table, test-json-encode-alist)
(test-json-encode-plist, test-json-pretty-print-object): Test
encoding of confusable keys.
