Strings containing floats ending in trailing zeros are unable to be coerced to floats.

Bug Report

Strings containing floats ending in trailing zeros are unable to be coerced to floats.

Instead a 'attr' must be of type number error is raised.

For example

validateTypes(DocumentClient)({ type: 'number' },'attr', '1.00')

This issue stems from the fact that parseFloat strips trailing zeros so the string representation ('1.00') not longer matches the parseFloat representaton ('1') causing the error to be thrown.

would this be an ok change for this? if so I'll make it and submit a PR..

value == value/1

this works for things I've tried.. "1" == "1"/1 and "1.00" == "1.00"/1 will both return true.. "abdhd1.00" == "abdhd1.00"/1 will return false. null == null/1 will return false as well..

@gpinkham true == true/1 so this is not good enough.
