Avoid allocating temporary basic_json for cbor and msgpack object keys (#5328)

* avoid allocating temporary basic_json for CBOR and MessagePack object keys

Signed-off-by: alexprabhat99 <alexpbara@gmail.com>

* add size() to the custom object key test type

UBJSON and BJData access object keys through size() and c_str()
directly, so the key type now provides both and the comment says why.

* address review: drop key size()/c_str(), test keys below the depth limit

Nothing in the library calls size() or c_str() on an object key, so the
test key type only keeps data(), which JSON_DIAGNOSTICS needs.

The CBOR and MessagePack custom key tests now also nest objects deeper
than detail::recursion_depth_limit(), so keys written by
write_cbor_iterative and write_msgpack_iterative are covered as well.
