When fuzzing with AFL there was an inconsistency in parsing floats. Liquid does not allow floats without a leading integer part, but liquid-c will allow a negative float without a leading integer part (e.g. liquid-c will parse -.1 as -0.1). I've added tests for this in liquid.

if (ISDIGIT(c) || c == '-') {
if (ISDIGIT(c) || (c == '-' && str + 1 < end && ISDIGIT(str[1]))) {

This will make the strict parser more strict, so could be a breaking change. We should instead use Liquid::Usage.increment to instrument this change to determine if it will break any code in practice. If we determine that it is relied upon, then I think we will need to make the corresponding strict parsing in the ruby liquid gem less strict instead.
