Title:
  JSON format for Variant encoding uses system locale for doubles

Status in “unity-scopes-api” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  e.g. Variant(1.23).serialize_json() is going to give you different
  results depending on your system locale setting.

  This seems highly risky to use in any situation where the result could
  either be saved to disk (and then the system locale is changed) or if
  two different machines with different locales were communicating.
