docs: fix the FILE* notes of parse() and the locking promise

The performance note of parse() said a FILE* is read one character at a
time. With glibc and the Apple C library the characters in the FILE's
buffer are scanned in bulk; only elsewhere is it one character at a
time. The file is locked once only where the C library has unlocked
stdio functions (not on musl, MinGW, newlib, with
JSON_DISABLE_UNLOCKED_FILE_IO, or under MSan). Qualify the promise on
parse.md, sax_parse.md, the parsing page and the performance page.
