A note on (the inconsistency of) numbers

Different languages treat numbers parsed from JSON differently.

Javascript treats both 1 and 1.0 as an integer, whereas Go parses all JSON numbers as 64-bit floating point numbers.

In an effort to maintain compatibility with the other implementations, this library treats all numbers as floats by default.
