As it is not expected that these two functions are likely to be called very often, I didn't bother making inlined-opcode variants of them as per e.g. is_bool(). Instead these are just regular XSUBs like trim() is.
Testing-wise, I'm a little unsure about the use of
1 * (inf - inf)
to get a calculated NaN value, but I really couldn't think of anything else that actually works. Is it portable enough?
