Resolve #4918, fix #5235. The important bits that I gathered from the discussion were:

  • DRF should internally encode/decode only strict JSON, since other modules (eg, postgres's JSONField) may not be compatible with the extended float values (Infinity, NaN). Incompatible values should raise an exception.
  • Users may still want to render/parse extended JSON.

This PR does the following:

  • Adds an internal rest_framework.utils.json module that defaults to strict JSON encoding/decoding.
  • All imports have been changed to rest_framework.utils.json, so they obey the stricter behavior.
  • Adds flake8-tidy-imports, which allows us direct users to import the json wrapper module.
  • Adds settings.STRICT_JSON, which controls the strictness of JSONParser & JSONRenderer. This defaults to True, but users can revert to the old extended behavior by setting this to False

STRICT_JSON controls the renderer & parser behavior on whether or not
to accept non-standard float values (NaN, Infinity).

@sbchisholm, @andyneff - does this provide the expected behavior?
