Document and test type_error.321 for discarded binary values

Add docs for the new exception (home/exceptions.md and the Exceptions
sections of to_cbor/to_msgpack/to_ubjson/to_bjdata/to_bson) and test
coverage for a discarded value nested in an array or object, nested
deeper, and (for UBJSON/BJData) inside an optimized same-type array,
for each of CBOR, MessagePack, UBJSON, BJData, and BSON. Adjust the
three pre-existing "discarded" tests that asserted the old silent
behavior (empty/short output) to expect type_error.321 instead.
