json_view: one SIMD macro set with the library

The view's vector code follows JSON_NO_SIMD, like the lexer and the float
writer, and skips the CPU check of SSSE3 when the code is compiled for
SSSE3 anyway (__SSSE3__), like the lexer. JSON_VIEW_NO_SIMD and
JSON_VIEW_USE_SSSE3 and their ABI tags _vns and _vssse3 are removed; they
were never released. JSON_NO_SIMD keeps its tag _ns.

-When defined on x86-64, the parser of [`basic_json_document`](../basic_json_document/index.md)
-(`<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>`) validates non-ASCII text in strings with SSSE3 without asking the CPU first.
-
-By default, the parser checks once at run time whether the CPU has SSSE3 (all x86-64 CPUs since about 2011 have it)
-and then validates non-ASCII text 16 bytes at a time, using the "lookup4" algorithm of
-[simdjson](https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson); on CPUs without SSSE3, it validates one UTF-8 sequence at a time.
-The vector check is compiled for SSSE3 with a function attribute (GCC 4.9 and later, Clang), so this needs no compiler
-option. With MSVC, the check uses `__cpuid`. On AArch64, the vector check uses NEON and is always on.
-
-Define the macro only together with a compiler option that enables SSSE3 (e.g. `-mssse3`, or `-march=` with a CPU that
-has it), and only for programs that run on such CPUs. It saves the check of the CPU, which costs little. The same
-input is accepted or rejected either way; only the speed of non-ASCII text differs.
