URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-validator/pull/410

   The Number-typed range overloads on `DoubleValidator` and `FloatValidator` 
are inherited from `AbstractNumberValidator`, which tests `value.doubleValue()` 
against `bound.doubleValue()`. While reviewing the exact-comparison work 
already done on the `BigInteger` and `BigDecimal` validators I noticed the two 
floating-point validators still take that narrowing path, so a `BigDecimal` or 
`BigInteger` bound carrying more significant digits than a `double` can hold is 
rounded onto the value before the test. `minValue(2^53, BigInteger 2^53 + 1)` 
returns `true` and `maxValue(2^53, 2^53 - 0.5)` returns `true`, both wrong: a 
value that sits outside the bound is reported as in range, and it then slips 
through any `isInRange` guard built on these methods.
   
   The two overrides keep the bound as a `BigDecimal` and compare the value's 
`double` against it, so the bound's precision survives; this follows the 
`compareTo` comparisons already used in `BigIntegerValidator` and 
`BigDecimalValidator`. A non-finite operand keeps the old `doubleValue()` 
comparison so the documented infinity and NaN behaviour is unchanged. Placing 
the check in the callee means `isInRange(Number, Number, Number)` picks it up 
through virtual dispatch rather than each caller needing its own guard.

AI tool was used to create this pull request, and to what extent did it 
contribute?
   - [x] Run a successful build using the default 
[Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) goal with `mvn`; that's `mvn` on the command 
line by itself.
   - [x] Write unit tests that match behavioral changes, where the tests fail 
if the changes to the runtime are not applied. This may not always be possible, 
but it is a best practice.
   - [x] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand 
what the pull request does, how, and why.
   - [x] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line 
and body. Note that a maintainer may squash commits during the merge process.
