With JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS enabled, single-element brace
initialization from a JSON value decided whether to copy the value or
build an object by inspecting the value's runtime shape: a two-element
array whose first element is a string, such as ["key", 42], was turned
into an object instead of being copied. This made the behavior depend
on the element's content, and it did not distinguish an existing value
of this shape from a nested braced pair written in the source, such as
the inner {"key", "value"} of {{"key", "value"}}.
json_ref now records whether it was constructed from a braced list
(true only for the std::initializer_list<json_ref> constructor used
for nested braced lists) or from a value. The initializer-list
constructor uses this to copy or move a single non-braced-list element
before deciding whether the list describes an object, so a JSON value
is always copied regardless of its shape, while a braced pair written
in the source still creates an object.
Fixes#5662.

* Add versioned inline namespace
Add a versioned inline namespace to prevent ABI issues when linking code
using multiple library versions.
* Add namespace macros
* Encode ABI information in inline namespace
Add _diag suffix to inline namespace if JSON_DIAGNOSTICS is enabled, and
_ldvcmp suffix if JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON is enabled.
* Move ABI-affecting macros into abi_macros.hpp
* Move std_fs namespace definition into std_fs.hpp
* Remove std_fs namespace from unit test
* Format more files in tests directory
* Add unit tests
* Update documentation
* Fix GDB pretty printer
* fixup! Add namespace macros
* Derive ABI prefix from NLOHMANN_JSON_VERSION_*
* Rename 'develop' folder to 'include/nlohmann'
