Description

Adopts the numeric coercion ADR in the flagd provider.

  • implement lossless numeric coercion in the in-process resolver (per-language flagd-core)
  • for ResolveAll / AnyFlag.double_value, apply the same lossless check client-side so bulk eval matches individual Resolve* behavior
  • bump flagd-testbed submodule; adopt @numeric-coercion-v2 and drop old @numeric-coercion exclusions/scenarios
  • coordinated release with other providers
  • breaking; call out in release notes

Update resolvers under resolvers/ and resolvers/process/.

Parent: https://github.com/open-feature/flagd/issues/1995

Depends on

Blocked until the following land first:

  • open-feature/flagd#1996 (flagd + flagd-core implementation)
  • open-feature/flagd-testbed#379 (@numeric-coercion-v2 scenarios and new testbed release)

Research direction

This work is blocked on open-feature/flagd#1996 and flagd-testbed#379. Once those land, start with the resolvers/ and resolvers/process/ directories, then inspect the updated flagd-testbed scenarios. Done means lossless coercion is applied consistently for individual and bulk resolution, the submodule uses @numeric-coercion-v2 without the old exclusions, and the breaking change is covered in release notes.
