Pinned symbol libraries are broken on 6.99

Description

When I pin libraries in the symbol editor, the pinned libraries are not saved correctly in the .kicad_pro file. Here is a comparison of what I see in the UI vs. what is actually saved in the .kicad_pro file.

Furthermore, when I fully close the KiCad project manager window, the list of pinned_symbol_libs is changed. Here's an image showing what the list looks like after I quit the KiCad app:
