Takes a string and unescapes "\" style escape codes

Code Replace
\\ \
\" "
\s single space
\n new line
\t 4 spaces (tab)
\uxxxx xxxx is a 4 char hex string, of the unicode character 0000xxxx
\Uxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxx is am 8 char hex string, of the unicode character xxxxxxxx
\hXxxx... X is a hex character, it's value is the number of pairs of hex characters that follow it, xxx is a raw byte array of utf-8 characters, be sure they are valid characters
