frontend rendering can't handle Latex special escape characters

v 2.3.0
Umlaut and other special characters are encoded with latex escape characters surrounded by curly brackets, i.e. in titles and authors section such as
author = {Leach, Sven and Chung, Ku-young and T{\"{u}}shaus, Laura and Huber, Reto and Karlen, Walter},
These are currently not parsed during frontend display.
before simply removing curly brackets as suggested in #32 , conversion of LaTex encoding would be needed first.
It would be possible to also perform this conversion during import, but then the import-export would be not reversible.
I see that
https://github.com/in2code-de/publications/blob/develop/Classes/Utility/BibTexUtility.php
takes special characters into account during import, however it does not take into account the curly brackets, see also #32 .
the decoding during import will likely break the export, as the special characters will not be readable by many latex interpreters.
