Report one-character non-numeric array indices like longer ones

A JSON pointer reference token that is not a number but has only one
character (e.g. "/a/x") was reported as out_of_range.404 ("unresolved
reference token"), because the "is not a number" check only ran for
tokens longer than one character; "/a/xy" got parse_error.109. Both now
throw parse_error.109. "-" and the empty token are still reported as
out_of_range.404. As a consequence, value(json_pointer, default) on an
array now throws for "/x" as it already did for "/xy".

Also document why ordered_map::erase's destroy/placement-new loop on
pair<const Key, T> is kept despite [basic.life]/8 before C++20.
