Strict parsing not as strict as it should be

[GoogleCodeExporter]

According to the docs, in strict parsing "Names that are unquoted" should throw 
an error, however the following code parses the json perfectly fine, although 
lenient is false:
new JsonParser().parse("{invalid: 1}");

I am using gson-2.1.

Here is a workaround from #1208 for Gson strict parsing with many details and extensive test case: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43233898/how-to-check-if-json-is-valid-in-java-using-gson/47890960#47890960

This has been solved in Gson version 2.11.0 with the new Strictness API, but requires explicit opt-in, see #372 (comment).
