Bug description:JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK has issues with strings that are numbers 
plus the letter e

Description:
------------
So, it looks like that when you call json_encode with the
JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK 
option on strings that have all numbers except for one letter 'e' PHP
throws a 
warning:

PHP Warning:  json_encode(): double INF does not conform to the JSON spec,

encoded as 0 in php shell code on line 1

It happens only on certain strings that make PHP think the number is very
large. 
According to the docs the 'e' should be followed with +/-, but it seems
that 
isn't the case. 

This causes a problem whenever converting values that are, say, hashed with
SHA1. 
Since the valid characters are [0-9][A-F], it's very possible to have a
value 
that is: [0-9]e[0-9] 

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$t = array('test' => '123343e871700');
var_dump(json_encode($t, JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK));

Expected result:
----------------
string(10) "{"test":"123343e871700"}"

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Warning:  json_encode(): double INF does not conform to the JSON spec,

encoded as 0 in php shell code on line 1
string(10) "{"test":0}"
