[issue27934] json float encoding incorrect for dbus.Double

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson added the comment:

Note that this will also change the results for JSON output of NumPy float64 values, so at the very least I'd expect this change to break (admittedly poorly written) unit tests / doctests.

>>> import numpy as np
>>> import json
>>> x = np.float64(3.3)
>>> json.dumps(x)
'3.2999999999999998'
>>> repr(x)
'3.2999999999999998'
>>> float.__repr__(x)
'3.3'
