CopyToJsonOneRow() sent the output of composite_to_json() directly
via CopySendData() without encoding conversion. The text and CSV
paths convert per-attribute via pg_server_to_any() when
need_transcoding is true, but the JSON path skipped this entirely.
This meant COPY ... TO ... WITH (FORMAT json, ENCODING 'LATIN1') on
a UTF-8 server silently produced UTF-8 output, and COPY TO STDOUT
with a non-UTF-8 client_encoding would send unconverted bytes to
the client.
Apply pg_server_to_any() to the whole JSON buffer after
composite_to_json() returns, converting to the requested file
encoding when it differs from the server encoding. Tests cover
both the explicit ENCODING option and the implicit case where
file_encoding is inherited from client_encoding.
Introduced by 7dadd38cda (json format for COPY TO).
