The mixed number arms of JSON_IMPLEMENT_OPERATOR cast the integer to
number_float_t before comparing. Past the float's mantissa that cast is lossy:
2^63-2 and 2^63-1 both round to 2^63, so each compares equal to that float
while differing from each other. Equality is therefore intransitive and the
ordering is not a strict weak ordering, which makes std::sort over such values,
or using them as keys in std::set or std::map, undefined behavior.
Compare the two exactly instead. The integer's range is a power of two the
float represents exactly, so a float outside it is ordered by magnitude alone;
inside it, truncating the float is exact, and the integer parts and then any
fractional part decide. The helper hands back a pair whose comparison with the
original operator reproduces that ordering, which keeps every operator's return
type as it was, including partial_ordering for the spaceship.
A NaN operand is returned in both members, so NaN stays false for the
relational operators and unordered for <=>. Values a float represents exactly
still compare equal, so json(1) == json(1.0) is unchanged.
