JSON decoding Error: "Bad escaped character in JSON at position X"

[x333765]

Issue Description: I'm encountering a JSON parsing error when using the confluent-schema-registry library to deserialize messages. The error occurs when the JSON encoded payload contains unescaped newline characters (\n) in string values.

Error Message:
Bad escaped character in JSON at position X

Root Cause: The issue appears to be that the schema registry's JSON deserializer doesn't handle literal newline characters within JSON string values. When a message contains text with actual line breaks (not escaped \n), the JSON decoding fails.

Example Problematic Content:

{
  "description": "Some text with actual line breaks
that span multiple lines
causing JSON decode to fail"
}

Fails in Code:
#SchemaRegistry.decode() method

Could you please suggest any reasonable solution. thanks!
