📡 Fix documentation gaps for 3.13.0 release (todos 138-142)

- Todo 138: Add "Known issues" section to modules.md with compiler-specific troubleshooting (GCC redefinition, MSVC symbol export). Add pointer note to quality_assurance.md.
- Todo 139: Document CBOR/MessagePack half-precision float encoding for NaN/Infinity (0xF9/0xCA with exact byte sequences). Explain pre-3.13.0 double-precision bug mechanism without issue citations.
- Todo 140: Document CBOR negative-integer-overflow rejection (parse_error.112) for magnitudes exceeding int64_t range (already implemented in rev 1).
- Todo 141: Update version history in value.md and operator[].md with behavior-change details, removing issue citations per citation policy (prose is self-contained).
- Todo 142: Global sed replace of 3.12.x → 3.13.0 placeholder across all 20 documentation files.

Revision 2 incorporates feedback to reduce changelog-like issue citations. Only citations that add unique troubleshooting value are retained (#5103 for GCC workaround, #3970 for MSVC symbol export). "Known issues" section follows PR #5252's visual pattern (info admonition with bold-bullet format).

+    - **GCC** may emit "redefinition" errors when `#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>` appears in a module preamble together with other imports. This is an upstream GCC bug, not yet resolved as of GCC 16. Workarounds: include `nlohmann/json.hpp` before other `#include`s, use `import nlohmann.json;` instead, or upgrade GCC. ([issue #5103](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/5103))
+    - **MSVC** could fail with `C2039: 'json_sax_dom_callback_parser' is not a member of ... detail`; fixed by exporting the required internal symbols from `json.cppm` (see [Exported symbols](#exported-symbols) above). ([issue #3970](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/3970))
