[Bug] Removal of quotes for property names with special unicode still broken

See original GitHub issue

Despite PR #543 - Fix removal of quotes from property names, there is still a problem with how quotes are removed from property names that can be noticed when trying to load the minified he library in the latest Safari.

To clarify, given the following input file:

module.exports = {
    '\uD835\uDCB6': 'ascr'
};

The babili output is the following:

module.exports={𝒶:'ascr'}

If you try to load that in Safari you get the following error:

SyntaxError: Invalid character '\u55349'

Thoughts?

I just ran into the same problem as @patrick-steele-idem.

Worked around the issue by adding the following options to the minify command: --no-evaluate --no-propertyLiterals

This disables the two plugins that are breaking the output code (babel-plugin-minify-constant-folding and babel-plugin-transform-property-literals).
