Preserve the object comparator's state in a deep copy past the nesting bound

copy_object_level(), used by the copy constructor and copy assignment once a
value is nested deeper than the iterative deep copy's bound (128 levels, or
every copy under JSON_NO_THREAD_LOCAL), built each object's copy with the
object type's plain range constructor. That default-constructs the object's
comparator instead of copying the original's. For an object type whose
comparator carries state, such as a std::map that compares keys
case-sensitively only when constructed that way, the copy then ordered - and
could even deduplicate - its keys differently from the original.

Add detail::is_comparator_constructible_object_type, a detection trait for
object types that provide a key_comp() and a constructor taking a range and a
comparator, the way std::map does. copy_object_level now dispatches on it: an
object type that qualifies gets its copy built with src_object.key_comp()
passed along; other object types, such as nlohmann::ordered_map (which has a
key_compare for its std::map-like interface, but no key_comp()), keep using
the plain range constructor exactly as before.

merge_patch and update() were checked for the same pattern; neither is
affected, since both only ever add members one at a time to an object that
already has its own comparator (or start a brand new default-constructed one),
rather than rebuilding an object_t from a range copied out of an existing,
possibly custom-comparator object.

Fixes #5649.
