Bug description:json_encode() without converting string to float

Description:
------------
json_encode() with JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK needs a way to encode strings as
numbers WITHOUT converting them to float first. You just can't use money
types and pass them with the built in json_encode() feature. I've looked
all over and there is no solution except to create my own json_encode()
which will bear performance issues compared to the built-in method.

Test script:
---------------
echo json_encode(['x'=>'0.00000001'], JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK)."\n";


Expected result:
----------------
{"x":0.00000001}





Actual result:
--------------
{"x":1.0e-8}
