There are no conversions happening. In the script, "output" is a regular JavaScript object, with all the behavior you would expect.
On the C++ side, "output" is a map<string, string>, but "output_obj" is a JavaScript object created from that map (via the WrapMap(output) call), and that's what's exposed to the script.
