Feature Request: Supporting non-standard "relaxed" JSON syntaxes #2540

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Hi, I noticed that non-standard “relaxed” JSON is not currently supported in simdjson. For example, Infinity/NaN number literals, C-style comments, and trailing commas in JSON files.

I am considering moving to simdjson from rapidjson, so I would like to know whether the simdjson project is open to accepting pull requests enabling these relaxed JSON syntaxes.

Describe the solution you'd like

These "relaxed" JSON syntaxes should be gated by a (possibly build-time?) flag to avoid reducing performance for users with standards-conformant JSON files.

Additional context

I saw a few GitHub issues about this: #1540 #2347 #2414

Based on the comments in these issues, it seems like you are likely to accept well-written PRs enabling non-standard "relaxed" JSON syntax. But I just wanted to double-check before writing any code.
