Document values and JSON pointers of json_view

- API pages for get, get_to, get_string, number_token, and value of
  basic_json_view; JSON pointer overloads of operator[], at, and
  contains; links both ways with the basic_json pages
- the feature page describes which conversions copy nothing
- the examples show when the view helps: strings without copies, numbers
  exactly as written, and paths into a large text

+
+```cpp
+// (1)
+template<typename T>
+T value(string_view_t key, const T& default_value) const;
+string_t value(string_view_t key, const char* default_value) const;
+
+// (2)
+template<typename T>
+T value(const json_pointer& ptr, const T& default_value) const;
+string_t value(const json_pointer& ptr, const char* default_value) const;
+```
+
+1. Returns the value of the object member with key `key` -- the first one, should the key occur more than once (see
+   [Notes on duplicate keys](operator[].md#notes)) -- converted to `T`, or `default_value` if there is no such member.
+2. Returns the value a JSON pointer `ptr` refers to, starting at this value, converted to `T`, or `default_value` if
+   `ptr` cannot be resolved.
+
+Both overloads have a dedicated `#!cpp const char*` overload, so `#!cpp v.value(key, "default")` (and the JSON pointer
+equivalent) deduce `string_t`, not `const char*`, for their return type and for the comparison used to pick between
+`key` and `default_value`.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`T`
+:   the type to convert the found value to; also the type of `default_value`
+
+## Parameters
+
+`key` (in)
+:   object key of the element to access
+
+`ptr` (in)
+:   JSON pointer to the element to access
+
+`default_value` (in)
+:   the value to return if `key`/`ptr` resolves to no value
+
+## Return value
+
+1. the first member with key `key`, converted to `T`, or `default_value`
+2. the value `ptr` resolves to, converted to `T`, or `default_value`
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong exception safety: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes to the view or the document it refers to.
+
+## Exceptions
+
+1. Throws [`type_error.306`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error306) if the value is not an object --
+   the same exception, with the same message, that [`BasicJsonType::value`](../basic_json/value.md) throws for the
+   same call. If a member with key `key` is found, throws whatever converting it to `T` throws (typically
+   [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302), with the same message
+   [`BasicJsonType::value`](../basic_json/value.md) throws for the same mismatch); a missing member never throws.
+2. Throws [`type_error.306`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error306) if this value -- not the value `ptr`
+   resolves to -- is neither an object nor an array. Throws [`parse_error.106`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error106)
+   or [`parse_error.109`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error109) if `ptr` contains a malformed array
+   index. If `ptr` resolves to a value, throws whatever converting it to `T` throws. Every other way `ptr` can fail to
+   resolve -- a missing key, an out-of-range or "`-`" array index, an unresolvable token on a primitive -- yields
+   `default_value` instead of throwing, exactly as [`BasicJsonType::value`](../basic_json/value.md) catches
+   `out_of_range` and returns `default_value`.
+
+None of these exceptions carry a [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../macros/json_diagnostics.md) path: the view has no
+`BasicJsonType` value to point at, so the exception is created without one, even if `BasicJsonType` was built with
+`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS` enabled.
+
+## Complexity
+
+1. Linear in the number of members: as for [`operator[]`](operator[].md#complexity), members are compared one after
+   another, in document order, stopping at the first match. Plus the complexity of converting the found member to
+   `T` (see [`get`](get.md)).
+2. Linear in the number of reference tokens of `ptr` and, for each token, in the number of members of the object at
+   that level or the index into the array -- as for the [`operator[]`](operator[].md#complexity) and
+   [`at`](at.md#complexity) overloads that take a JSON pointer. Plus the complexity of converting the resolved value
+   to `T`.
+
+## Notes
+
+!!! info "Differences to `at` and `operator[]`"
+
+    Unlike [`at`](at.md), this function does not throw if `key`/`ptr` resolves to no value. Unlike
+    [`operator[]`](operator[].md), it never returns a [discarded](is_discarded.md) view -- it always returns a `T` --
+    and it is available on any view, since it never needs to insert a missing element the way the non-const
+    `BasicJsonType::operator[]` would.
+
+!!! info "Which values can be asked"
+
+    As for [`BasicJsonType::value`](../basic_json/value.md), the key overload (1) requires an object, and the JSON
+    pointer overload (2) an object or an array.
+
+## Examples
+
+??? example "Example: (1) access specified object element with default value"
+
+    The example below reads a couple of optional configuration fields with a default, so that a missing key never
+    needs a `#!cpp try`/`#!cpp catch` of its own.
+
+    ```cpp
+    --8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__value.cpp"
+    ```
+
+    Output:
+
+    ```json
+    --8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__value.output"
+    ```
+
+??? example "Example: (2) access specified element via JSON pointer with default value"
+
+    The example below reads an optional, nested configuration value with a default, given as a JSON pointer.
+
+    ```cpp
+    --8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__value_json_pointer.cpp"
+    ```
+
+    Output:
+
+    ```json
+    --8<-- "examples/basic_json_view__value_json_pointer.output"
+    ```
