Emulate the is_float function

Overview

The regex is what's currently used in is_float To keep your development moving forward, you can also add a deprecation warning using the Integer type:

“`class example($value) { validate_float($value,) }“`

would turn into

“` class example(Stdlib::Compat::Float $value)

validate_float($value, 10, 0)
assert_type(Integer[0, 10], $value) |$expected, $actual| {
  warning("The 'value' parameter for the 'ntp' class has type ${actual, but should be $expected.")
}

} “`

This allows you to find all places where a consumers of your code call it with unexpected values.
