 * is no exponential notation for non-base-ten numbers.  The fractional part
 * will be rounded to as few digits as possible while still preserving the
 * round-trip property (analogous to that of printing decimal numbers).  In
 * other words, if one were to read the resulting string in via a hypothetical
 * base-number-reading routine that rounds to the nearest IEEE double (and to
 * an even significand if there are two equally near doubles), then the result
 * would equal d (except for -0.0, which converts to "0", and NaN, which is
 * not equal to itself).
 *
 * Return nullptr if out of memory.  If the result is not nullptr, it must be
 * released via js_free().
