 Summary of the bug:
 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 % echo $LANG
 en_US.UTF-8
 % ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -c:v copy -c:a copy -metadata title="Un Monstre à
 Paris" -metadata comment="An exercise with unicode" output.avi
 % ffprobe -v error -hide_banner -show_format -print_format json -i
 output.avi
 [...]
             "title": "Un Monstre à Paris",
 }}}

 The above is incorrect, it should instead prints:

 {{{
 % mediainfo output.avi
 [...]
 Movie name                               : Un Monstre à Paris
 }}}
