Function ascii_escaped

r"""If val is pure ASCII, return it as an str, otherwise, escape bytes objects into a sequence of escaped bytes: b'\xc3\xb4\xc5\xd6' -> r'\xc3\xb4\xc5\xd6' and escapes strings into a sequence of escaped unicode ids, e.g.: r'4\nV\U00043efa\x0eMXWB\x1e\u3028\u15fd\xcd\U0007d944'

       valid UTF-8 unicode if it finds them in bytes, but we
       want to return escaped bytes for any byte, even if they match
       a UTF-8 string.
