Previously the
f32 as f64would produce a nondeterministic sign, as I found out in rust-lang/miri#3139. This would then get leaked byas_f64()or by serialization of theNumber. It doesn't make a difference when serializing to YAML, but we support serializingserde_yaml::Numberto TOML and other formats, where it does.YAML only has one NaN, so even negative NaNs serialize to
.nanin YAML. It seems fine to discard the original sign inserde_yaml::Numbertoo.
