[dotnet] Handle negative zero BiDi response

Per resolution in w3c/webdriver-bidi#887

💥 What does this PR do?

Allow handling of "-0" as a response value, with the understanding that this is intended behavior from BiDi.

🔧 Implementation Notes

Note that Broker.cs retains handling of numbers-as-strings, even if that is strictly speaking, not necessary to keep around.

I personally do not see the harm in keeping this as is, but I do not have a strong opinion.

selenium/dotnet/src/webdriver/BiDi/Communication/Broker.cs

Lines 69 to 71 in 9be77c1

	// BiDi returns special numbers such as "NaN" as strings
	// Additionally, -0 is returned as a string "-0"
	NumberHandling = JsonNumberHandling.AllowNamedFloatingPointLiterals | JsonNumberHandling.AllowReadingFromString,

⚡ Recommended focus areas for review Exception Handling The Read method throws a generic JsonException without specific error messages when string parsing fails, which could make debugging difficult for developers using this converter. throw new JsonException(); } Performance Concern The IsNegativeZero method uses BitConverter operations which may have performance implications when called frequently during JSON serialization of large datasets. static bool IsNegativeZero(double x) { // Negative zero is less trivial to test, because 0 == -0 is true // We need to do a bit pattern comparison return BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(x) == BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(-0.0); }

PR Code Suggestions ✨

Explore these optional code suggestions:

Category	Suggestion	Impact
General	Optimize negative zero detection The bit pattern comparison can be optimized by avoiding the second BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits call. The bit pattern for negative zero is a known constant that can be precomputed. dotnet/src/webdriver/BiDi/Communication/Json/Converters/BiDiDoubleConverter.cs [84-90] static bool IsNegativeZero(double x) { // Negative zero is less trivial to test, because 0 == -0 is true // We need to do a bit pattern comparison - - return BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(x) == BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(-0.0); + const long NegativeZeroBits = unchecked((long)0x8000000000000000); + return BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(x) == NegativeZeroBits; } Apply / Chat Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6 __ Why: The suggestion correctly identifies a micro-optimization by replacing a repeated calculation (BitConverter.DoubleToInt64Bits(-0.0)) with a pre-computed constant. This improves performance and readability by making the comparison value explicit.	Low
	Improve null handling pattern The null-coalescing operator with exception throw creates an unnecessary intermediate variable. Consider using a more direct approach that handles the null case explicitly for better readability and performance. dotnet/src/webdriver/BiDi/Communication/Json/Converters/BiDiDoubleConverter.cs [39] -var str = reader.GetString() ?? throw new JsonException(); +var str = reader.GetString(); +if (str is null) +{ + throw new JsonException(); +} Apply / Chat Suggestion importance[1-10]: 2 __ Why: The suggestion replaces a modern C# 9.0 "throw expression" with a more verbose if-null check. This is a stylistic preference with negligible performance impact and can be seen as a step back from concise, modern syntax.	Low
