Intermittent JSON parse failure

See original GitHub issue

Run chris-araman/xcodebuild@tweaks
  with:
    action: build
    platform: tvOS
    xcode: ~11.3
    quiet: false
    code-coverage: false
  env:
    TOOLCHAINS: 
Selected Xcode 11.3.1
Error: SyntaxError: Unexpected token b in JSON at position 106

I wonder whether this might be related to this issue, resolved in Xcode 12.5:

xcodebuild no longer double-escapes the output of xcodebuild -showBuildSettings -json. (63554669)
