Matchers: Numeric matcher passing test sending String value

[surpher]

🌎 Environment

• Platform: pact_ffi
• Version/Release: 0.4.25
• Pact spec: v3, v4
• FFI used:

bool pactffi_with_body(
   InteractionHandle interaction,
   enum InteractionPart part,
   const char *content_type,
   const char *body
);

💬 Description

Setting up unit tests for PactSwift verifying matchers in request body, specifically Numeric matcher. When executing the API request and Pact verification, verification succeeds with false positive:

🦶 Reproduction Steps

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Setup a pact interaction that expects request body with Numeric value, ie

"{\"value\”:{
   \"key2\":{\"value\":321,\"pact:matcher:type\":\"number\”},
   \"key1\”:{\"pact:matcher:type\":\"number\",\"value\":123.1}},
   \"pact:matcher:type\":\"type\”
}"

2. Prepare an encodable type Body(key1: String, key2: String) that takes strings for property’s values,
3. Send a POST request with the Body type and string values,
4. Verify pact interaction,

🤔 Expected Results

Pact test should fail due to invalid type being passed for the body keys’ values.

😲 Actual Results

Pact test succeeds with Request matched, sending response

           status: 200
           headers: None
           body: Missing
