[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 04/11] qapi: Factor out JSON number formatting

[Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>]

Pull out a new qstring_append_json_number() helper, so that all
JSON output producers can use a consistent style for printing
floating point without duplicating code (since we are doing more
data massaging than a simple printf format).

Address one FIXME by adding an Error parameter and warning the
caller if the requested number cannot be represented in JSON;
but add another FIXME in its place because we have no way to
report the problem higher up the stack.
