    qobject: Document more shortcomings in our number handling · 6e8e5cb9

    We've already documented that our JSON parsing is locale dependent;
    but we should also document that our JSON output has the same
    problem.  Additionally, JSON requires finite values (you have to
    upgrade to JSON5 to get support for Inf or NaN), and our output
    truncates floating point numbers to the point of losing significant
    precision that could cause the receiver to read a different value.
    
    Sadly, this series is not going to be the one that addresses these
    problems.
    
    Fix some trailing whitespace I noticed in the vicinity.
