Decoding a JSON integer value containing an exponent and a decimal point

[illarionov]

Currently, numeric JSON values ​​containing a decimal point cannot be decoded as integer types. An example of such values: 1.0, 1.0E1, -1.5E3, 0.5e2.

Decoding it as long fails with an error:

println(Json.decodeFromString<Int>("1.0e1"))
kotlinx.serialization.json.internal.JsonDecodingException: Unexpected JSON token at offset 0: Unexpected symbol '.' in numeric literal at path: $

It would be beneficial if these values could be decoded. Alternatively, it should be documented that such form is not supported.
