Description

I got a JSON like this as int:

{
  "time_request": 1577833200
}

and a DTO that looks like this:

class Export
{
    public function __construct(
        #[Context([DateTimeNormalizer::FORMAT_KEY => 'U'])]
        #[SerializedName('time_request')]
        public ?DateTimeInterface $timeRequest = null,
   )
}

I can denormalize into the Object without problems.
But when I try to normalize back into JSON, it is returned as string.

{
  "time_request": "1577833200"
}

I would like to extend DateTimeNormalizer that, when an extra Flag is enabled, for Format "U" and "U.u" it returns int or float respectively.

(I might need to search for a good name for that)
