Currently,
StringEscapeUtilsunescapes ECMAScript using the Java strategy.This mostly works, but ECMAScript additionally supports
\xCCescapes, whereCCis a hex code.This PR adds support for that, as well as an initial test.
I took the liberty of making the child translators of the Java aggregate translator reusable, so I could basically extend the list for the ES version. If we prefer to duplicate that code or to use a varargs list or something, I'm absolutely fine with that as well.
I just subscribed to the dev list and requested access to Jira. I will update the PR title once I've created the corresponding issue.
