Add basic_json::as_base_class and document name conflicts with custom base classes

Browse Source 
Members of basic_json hide members of a custom base class with the same
name, and future releases may add members that hide ones accessible
today. Document this in json_base_class_t and add as_base_class() to
reach hidden members without spelling out the cast.

Also make json_base_class_t a public member type. It was documented
since 3.12.0, but declared private, so users could not name it.

Supersedes #3899.
