PHP JSON decoding has surprising behavior on some edge cases.
Documented this via comments, added related tests, and tweaked
related CommentStore code.

* Instead, consider passing $assoc as true to return an associative array.

* with $assoc = true returns an array, not an object, breaking round-trip consistency.
*
