Error migrating some $.ajax(...) calls to version 1.2.x (from versions 1.1.x)

[Piatenko]

Prior to version 1.2 it was ok to pass a Number data parameter to jQuery.ajax() function. Example:

var i = 321;
$.ajax( { url: "/test.html", type:"POST", dataType:"json", data: i,
processData:false, success:function(r){alert(r)} } )

in new version I have to specify data: i+"" to pass it as string parameter

var i = 321;
$.ajax( { url: "/test.html", type:"POST", dataType:"json", data: i+"",
processData:false, success:function(r){alert(r)} } )

and that's only because of this new line 2216 in code (v 1.2.1):

if ( s.dataType == "json" && (s.data && s.data.match(jsre) || s.url.match(jsre)) ) {

it could be easily fixed by adding only one additional condition typeof s.data==="string" here:

if ( s.dataType == "json" && (s.data && typeof s.data==="string" && s.data.match(jsre) ||
s.url.match(jsre)) ) {

Fixed in SVN rev [3670].
