Description
Documentation would benefit from the
info on implementation-limits-related design choices.
* Guaranteed roundtrip for `value` -> serialized text -> value (but note that infinity and NaN can be in the original `value` and do not currently serialize properly).
* JSON inputs where number values cannot be represented losslessly in
`uint64_t`, `int64_t` and `double`, may render different values when parsed and
then serialized back, and for extremely big number values can even fail to
parse (document supported number ranges).
* Whatever JSON output you can produce with this library, we guarantee it
can be passed by any common JSON implementation (probably also based on
`uint64_t` + `int64_t` + `double` implementation) (this hardly can be anything specific, we can only present it as a goal of the library).
Also
* Configuration macros that affect implementation limits
* Hard-coded/default implementation limits
