Golang encoding/json/v2: unexpected support for Inf in map[string]any value

inf := math.Inf(1)
json.Marshal(inf)
json.Marshal(struct{ F float64 }{inf})
json.Marshal(map[string]any{"k": inf})

v1 returns "json: unsupported value: +Inf" in all three cases.

v2 (including v1 with GOEXPERIMENT=jsonv2) returns "json: unsupported value: +Inf" in the first two cases, but succeeds and returns {"k":"Infinity"} in the third case.

Seems like an unintentional change? I'd expect all three cases to succeed or fail.
