Swap the JSON encoder/decoder used across the backend from stdlib json to
orjson when ENABLE_ORJSON is set — HTTP request bodies, JSONResponse
bodies, upstream provider responses, SSE chunks, and socket.io/Redis
payloads.
The flag defaults to off, in which case the app uses stdlib json and
engineio's codec verbatim, so default behaviour is unchanged.
- json_codec exports JSONCodec (stdlib json or the orjson codec) and
SOCKETIO_JSON (engineio's codec or the orjson codec); call sites import
JSONCodec and stay implementation-agnostic
- apply_orjson_http_json() is a no-op when the flag is off, leaving
starlette's Request.json / JSONResponse.render untouched
- the orjson codec falls back to the stdlib for inputs orjson rejects
(non-str dict keys, ints beyond 64 bits, NaN literals)
- orjson is imported only when the flag is on
- FastAPI(default_response_class=...) is deliberately not used: an
explicit default disables the Pydantic direct-to-bytes fast path for
response_model routes
