/*
 * QNum encapsulates how our dialect of JSON fills in the blanks left
 * by the JSON specification (RFC 8259) regarding numbers.
 *
 * Conceptually, we treat number as an abstract type with three
 * concrete subtypes: floating-point, signed integer, unsigned
 * integer.  QNum implements this as a discriminated union of double,
 * int64_t, uint64_t.
 *
 * The JSON parser picks the subtype as follows.  If the number has a
 * decimal point or an exponent, it is floating-point.  Else if it
 * fits into int64_t, it's signed integer.  Else if it fits into
 * uint64_t, it's unsigned integer.  Else it's floating-point.
 *
 * Any number can serve as double: qnum_get_double() converts under
 * the hood.
 *
 * An integer can serve as signed / unsigned integer as long as it is
 * in range: qnum_get_try_int() / qnum_get_try_uint() check range and
 * convert under the hood.
