Summary: xml-to-json quotes numbers

Initial Comment:
Numbers output from xml-to-json are surrounded by quotes. This may break consumers that expect a numeric value for some variable.

Simplified example, where the type of the variable output must be available to the xml-to-json function. also a cast of $count to xs:decimal will not help:

let $hits := collection(/some/path//[ft:query(., $query)]
let $count := count($hits)
let $result :=
	<result>
		<count>{$count}</count>
	</result>
return

json:xml-to-json($result)

will write: {"count" : "2" }
