-Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix: `jv_number_value` should cache the double value of
- literal numbers (#3245)
-
-The code of `jv_number_value` is intended to cache the double value of
-literal numbers, but it does not work because it accepts the `jv` struct
-by value. This patch fixes the behavior by checking if the double value
-is `NaN`, which indicates the unconverted value. This patch improves the
-performance of major use cases; e.g. `range(1000000)` runs 25% faster.

-Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Reject NaN with payload while parsing JSON
-
-This commit drops support for parsing NaN with payload in JSON like
-`NaN123` and fixes CVE-2024-53427. Other JSON extensions like `NaN` and
-`Infinity` are still supported. Fixes #3023, fixes #3196, fixes #3246.
