Create a value before giving it its type

Squashed onto develop from:
- Create a value before giving it its type
- Skip the failed-allocation test when exceptions are disabled
- Keep the created pointer rather than an uninitialized json_value
- Skip the vector<bool> failed-allocation check for VS 2015 with iterator debugging
- Test the remaining to_json overloads with a failing allocation
- Skip the to_json allocation-failure section on VS 2015 Debug
- Fix false GCC -Warray-bounds error with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS at -O3 (#5744)

* j.m_data.m_value.destroy(j.m_data.m_type) to avoid a memory leak in case j contains an

* A value that has to be allocated is created before the old one is destroyed:
* were it the other way around, an exception while creating the new value would
* leave j with the type of the new value, but the pointer to the destroyed old one.
