Description

Compare the [readme of fast_double_parser](https://github.com/lemire/fast_double_parser/blob/4f5e530b02a94ab59cef021a4064852394157b27/README.md):

> Deprecated; We encourage users to adopt [fast_float](https://github.com/fastfloat/fast_float) library instead. It has more functionality and greater speed in some cases.

Research direction

Compare the linked fast_double_parser README with the fast_float project information, then locate where pyjson5 integrates the deprecated parser. Review the repository's existing parser behavior before changing the dependency; the work is done when the project builds and its parsing behavior remains compatible with fast_float.
