#31577: wp.ajax.send JS function should send ajax request with dataType json

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 Occasionally when using the wp.ajax.send JS function defined in wp-
 includes/js/wp-util.js:70 the system fails to auto-detect that the
 response is JSON, even when it is a valid JSON string.

 Given that the remainder of the code fails if the response is not a valid
 object it should be safe to add dataType: 'json' to the default options
 hash defined on line 78 of that file.
