Description:
------------
json_encode() is presenting rounding issues when trying to encode float values.

Note: I'm using serialize_precision equals to -1 in my php.ini.


Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo json_encode((floatval(-0.717655) - floatval(6.7173)));

Expected result:
----------------
'-7.434955'

Actual result:
--------------
'-7.4349549999999995'

From PHP 7.1, precision handling differ. I suppose it's in UPGRADING.
Use "valid" serialize_precision if you need specific precision.
