/**
Unescape token part of a JSON Pointer string

`token` should *not* contain any '/' characters.

Here's my take:

~1 is unescaped with higher priority than ~0 because it is a lower-order escape character.
I say "lower order" because '/' needs escaping due to the JSON Pointer serialization technique.
Whereas, '~' is escaped because escaping '/' uses the '~' character.

This is the exact inverse of `unescapeToken()`, so the reverse replacements must take place in reverse order.
