Fix meta()'s dead, syntactically invalid HP aCC branch

The HP aCC branch of basic_json::meta() was missing a semicolon and
has therefore never compiled; adding only a semicolon would also make
it throw type_error.305, since it assigned a plain string to
result["compiler"] and then indexed into it like the other branches
do into an object. Make the branch consistent with the others by
assigning an object with "family" and "version" keys, narrow the
condition to __HP_aCC (a C compiler cannot build this header-only
library), and fix meta.md, which documented the old (impossible)
plain-string behavior.
