Also see |strtrans()|.
Note 2: Output format is mostly compatible with YAML, except
for infinite and NaN floating-point values representations
which use |str2float()|. Strings are also dumped literally,
only single quote is escaped, which does not allow using YAML
for parsing back binary strings (including text when
'encoding' is not UTF-8). |eval()| should always work for
strings and floats though and this is the only official
method, use |msgpackdump()| or |json_encode()| if you need to
share data with other application.

Same thing applies to |string()| (though it uses construct like
"{E724@level}"), but this is not reliable because |string()| continues to
error out.
4. Stringifyed infinite and NaN values now use |str2float()| and can be evaled
back.
Viminfo text files were replaced with binary (messagepack) ShaDa files.
