The non-template overloads for double asserted binary64 doubles wherever json.hpp was included, so the library no longer compiled where double is not IEEE 754 binary64 (AVR, -fshort-double). A trait now picks Zmij for any binary64 type, including a long double of that format (MSVC, Apple Arm), and Grisu2 for the others. Remove the unused write_short_decimal, powers_of_ten_16, zmij::decimal, zmij::to_decimal, and shortest_digits(double).

Write doubles with the conversion of Zmij by Victor Zverovich (MIT),
ported to C++11 (detail/conversions/zmij.hpp). It finds the
shortest decimal that reads back as the same double, and the
closest one if there are several. Grisu2, used until now, is fast
but not always shortest: it sometimes writes a 17th digit where 16
suffice, or a last digit that is not the closest. The layout is
unchanged (1.5, 100.0, 1e+100, -0.0); float keeps Grisu2.
Digits are converted eight at a time with the BCD conversion of
Xiang JunBo, as in Zmij, and written with one byte swap per eight
digits and fixed-size moves instead of per-digit loops. Leading and
trailing zeros are counted from those bytes. to_chars() uses a
local buffer when the caller's is shorter than the 41 bytes this
may write. The powers of ten come from the number-parsing table,
adjusted where it holds values rounded up, and extended with Zmij's
compressed tables beyond 10^308.
write_shortest() converts its 16 digits in one vector register
(SSE2 on x86-64, NEON on 64-bit Arm, both baseline) and inserts the
decimal point inside the register, avoiding a store-forwarding
stall that cost about 25% of the time to write a double. dump()
writes floats and integers straight into the serializer's write
buffer instead of copying them from a member buffer, and small
integers eight digits at a time. read_eight_bytes() and
parse_eight_digits() are marked always-inline, which GCC had been
calling out of line in the number-parsing loops.
Of one million random doubles, about 0.14% are now written with
different digits, always to a value that still reads back as the
same double.

Give the library its own correctly rounded float converter for
binary32 and binary64 (IEEE 754), and speed up the lexer's string
and escape scanning.
The converter splits a number token into sign, significand, and
decimal exponent, then tries Clinger's fast path, then a templated
Eisel-Lemire step, and falls back to an exact big-integer digit
comparison for tokens with more than 19 significant digits whose two
candidate values round differently. This replaces std::from_chars
and strtod/strtof for both formats, so parsed values no longer
depend on the C/C++ library or the current locale. The strtold
fallback kept for other long double formats (x87, binary128) now
also copies a multi-byte decimal point correctly, fixing #5660.
eisel_lemire() and decimal_to_float() are always inlined so callers
keep the whole conversion in their hot loop.
The string-scanning kernels in string_scan.hpp find a stop byte with
the trailing-zero count of the SWAR mask instead of a byte loop, and
scalar_string_bulk_run() validates a run of multi-byte UTF-8
sequences one after another instead of re-searching after each one.
get_codepoint() decodes a contiguous \uXXXX escape with one table
lookup per byte instead of four range-checked get() calls; the
streaming path and all error positions are unchanged.
Adds 508 generated hard float-parsing cases with expected binary32
and binary64 bits, and kernel-comparison tests for the string scans
and the escape table against byte-by-byte references.

* Stop the BON8 writer overflowing the stack on deep values
to_bon8() recursed once per nesting level, so a value the iterative
BON8 reader accepts (e.g. ~24k nested one-element arrays) crashed on
the way back out. #5781 bounded the CBOR, MessagePack, and UBJSON/BJData
writers, but BON8 was merged before it and was not covered.
Apply the same scheme: recurse for the first recursion_depth_limit()
levels, then finish the value with write_bon8_iterative, which keeps
the open containers on a heap stack (reusing binary_container_frame)
and writes the 0xFE closer when it leaves a container with more than
four elements. The output is byte-for-byte unchanged.

* Restore v3.12.0 support for custom object key types
Custom object_t types whose key_type is not string_t compiled with
v3.12.0 for several APIs that unreleased changes broke:
- to_bson failed for every custom key type (#5553 kept a const string_t*
to the key); the nested entry's header is now written where the entry
is found.
- Copying deep values (and parse, merge_patch, update, insert) required
operator== on keys (#5389); keys without one are now paired via find().
- to_cbor/to_msgpack required an implicit conversion to string_t (#5746,
#5328); keys without one go through a temporary basic_json again.
- at() required a conversion to string_t for its error message (#5727);
other keys are passed to concat() unchanged again.
The new unit-custom-object-key-type.cpp covers five key types with
different capabilities.

A code search of client code found many hand-written versions of
functionality the library already has: recursive object merges
(update(j, true) since 3.10.5), dotted-path getters (value() and
contains() with a JSON Pointer), get_or helpers (value() throws for a
member that is present but null), and adl_serializer specializations
for std::optional (supported since 3.12.0).
- modifying_values.md: describe both modes of update(), add a
defaults + user settings recipe, and stop recommending Merge Patch
for recursive merges.
- merge_patch.md: note that null deletes keys, so a merge patch is not
a general deep merge; link update().
- default_value.md: add "Nested values" (value/contains with a JSON
Pointer, building a pointer from a dotted path with operator/=) and
a warning that null and mistyped members are not missing.
- value.md: note that a null member is converted, not replaced by the

The custom object key tests from #5328 instantiate a second basic_json
specialization in unit-cbor.cpp and unit-msgpack.cpp. This pushed
unit-msgpack.cpp.obj past 65535 sections in the clang (MinGW) jobs of
the Windows workflow, and linking test-msgpack_cpp11 fails with
"relocation truncated to fit: IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'".
The GNU linker keeps the section an associative COMDAT section belongs
to in 16 bits (x_associated in include/coff/internal.h), although big
object files store 32 bits. In larger objects it therefore ties the
jump tables of inline functions to the wrong function and discards them

* Unflatten in time and memory linear in the pointer depth
#5443 made unflatten() decide between arrays and objects independently
of the iteration order by collecting the pointer prefixes that have a
reference token 0 below them in a std::set<std::vector<string_t>>.
Every such prefix was stored as a copy of all its reference tokens, and
get_and_create() compared whole prefix vectors at every step, so
unflattening a pointer of depth d took time and memory quadratic in d:
a 10,000-level array pointer took 18 s and 1.3 GB, a 100,000-level one
did not finish.
The prefixes are now numbered nodes of a tree, so each is stored once
and get_and_create() follows the tree token by token. The result is

flatten() now walks the value with an explicit stack and keeps the path

* Keep converted object keys alive while writing UBJSON and BJData
Since #5746, write_ubjson and write_ubjson_iterative pass each object key
to sanitize_utf8_for_write and keep the returned reference. When
object_t::key_type is not string_t but converts to it, the argument is a
temporary that is destroyed at the end of the statement, and the
function returns a reference to it in every case but a sanitized copy,
so the key bytes are read from a dead object (AddressSanitizer:
stack-use-after-scope). Default json and ordered_json are unaffected.
Bind the key to a named object_key_string_t first: a reference when
key_type is string_t, so no copy is added there, and a converted copy
otherwise. A deleted overload of sanitize_utf8_for_write for anything
other than string_t turns a recurrence into a compile error.

JSON_DELETE_DEPRECATED_FUNCTIONS=1 to the dependency, the pkg-config

* Make std::hash<basic_json> consistent with operator== for numbers
operator== converts between number_integer, number_unsigned, and
number_float before comparing, so json(0), json(0U), and json(0.0)
all compare equal. hash() folded the specific value_t into the
result for each of the three numeric cases, giving each a distinct
hash and breaking the standard Hash requirement that a == b implies
hash(a) == hash(b). A std::unordered_set could therefore hold all
three as separate elements even though they compare equal.
hash() now treats all three numeric variants the same way: it
converts the value to number_float_t and combines it with a single
shared type tag, so any two numbers operator== considers equal hash
identically regardless of which internal type actually holds them.
Updated the accompanying test to check this consistency directly
(including via an actual unordered_set) instead of asserting that 0,
0U, and 0.0 hash differently, since that assumption was the bug.
Also corrected the function's own doc comment and the std::hash API
docs, which described the old behavior as intended.

* Normalize -0.0 in number hashes and test range ends
operator== compares numbers exactly since #5459, so equal numbers
share one value and convert to the same number_float_t. Update the
comment accordingly, map -0.0 to 0.0 before hashing (std::hash need
not do that), and test -0.0 and the ends of the integer ranges. Show
hash(0.0) in the docs example and note the change in the version
history.

* Clarify hash documentation after review
- Say "may hash differently" for null, false, and numbers, since a
collision across types is possible.
- Name the storage types (signed integer, unsigned integer,
floating-point number) instead of example literals.
- Explain that the hash survives converting an integer to
number_float_t but not the lossy conversion back, and that unequal
numbers may share a hash.
- State that the example hash values are illustrative only and vary by
platform, compiler, compiler version, and library version.

* Stop binary writers overflowing the stack on deep values
to_cbor, to_msgpack, and to_ubjson recurse once per nesting level.
The parser is iterative, so a value the library accepts can crash on
the way back out.
Keep the existing recursive path for the first 128 levels and finish
anything deeper on a heap stack. Output is unchanged. BSON is left
alone because its extra size walk is a separate change.
Rebased onto the value-type output sink. The heap frames now initialize
every member, which is what -Weffc++ was rejecting.

* Redesign the iterative binary writers around a shared recursion depth limit
Address the open review on the non-recursive CBOR/MessagePack/UBJSON/BJData
writers (#5518):
- Delete the CBOR array/object prefix helpers; both the recursive and
iterative paths call write_cbor_head(), which already existed on develop.
- MessagePack: share one write_msgpack_array_prefix()/write_msgpack_object_prefix()
helper per container kind between the recursive and iterative paths, both
going through to_msgpack_length() so an over-long container throws
out_of_range.412 identically either way.
- Reuse detail::recursion_depth_limit() instead of a separate constant, the
same bound serializer::dump() and write_bson_document() already use.
- Redesign the frames after bson_frame/dump_frame: only a container with
elements is ever pushed, its header is written at the point it is pushed,
and the iterator is set in the frame's constructor instead of a
default-then-assign two-step with a since-removed "started" flag. The
UBJSON frame keeps only the value pointer, the per-element prefix_required
flag, and the iterator; write_closer and is_object are no longer stored,
since the former is always !use_count (use_count is constant for the whole
document) and the latter follows from value->is_object().
- Factor the BJData ND-array shape check into is_bjdata_ndarray(), used by
both the recursive object case and the iterative pushing logic.
- Give the frame classes the GCC -Weffc++ treatment already used for
diff_frame: a noexcept converting constructor plus the five special members
defaulted with no explicit noexcept.
- Fix two @ref self-references in write_cbor/write_msgpack/write_ubjson's own
doc comments to point at the public to_cbor/to_msgpack/to_ubjson/to_bjdata
API instead.
- The iterative object-key write for CBOR/MessagePack now runs the same
strict-mode check_utf8() against the parent object as diagnostics context
that the recursive path already ran, so the two paths raise identical
diagnostics across the switch-over.
- Rewrite the tests: round trips instead of a bare size check, byte-exact
comparisons against the recursive output at depths around the bound, a
deep object and a BJData ND-array past the bound, a deep discarded value
(type_error.321), and the OSS-Fuzz 566583014 CBOR/MessagePack regression.
BSON is unaffected by this change; it already walks its documents
iteratively and is covered separately by #5553.

* Check in the fuzzers that parsing without exceptions agrees

value where parsing with exceptions fails, and must return the same value
where it succeeds. Values are compared by their dump(), because NaN is
not equal to itself.
A plain !is_discarded() assertion, as suggested in #3642, would never
fail: the drivers parse with exceptions, so a result can never be
discarded.

* Test the serializer's buffers at their boundaries
The dump() indent overflow survived full line coverage because the tests
grew its buffer by only one step. This adds tests that land exactly on,
and one past, the limits of the other two serializer buffers:
- write_buffer (1024 bytes): strings of 1023, 1024 and 1025 bytes at the
top level, and of 1022 and 1023 bytes inside an array, so that both
guards in put_string() are hit at their boundary. Each is checked for
dump() and for stream output.
- string_buffer (512 bytes, flushed when fewer than 13 bytes remain):
runs of two-byte escapes, and a surrogate pair written with 14 bytes of
room, right after a flush, and one escape later.
- The 8-byte bulk scan from the serializer side: 0 to 17 plain bytes
followed by a quote, a control character, or a non-ASCII character.

100000 from vector and pointer input, and must report a truncated
payload as a parse error.
UBJSON reads binary values as arrays of numbers, so it is tested with
strings only. BJData binary values reach the chunked read only in
Draft 3. BON8 decodes strings byte by byte and does not use this path.

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.

keep their loop, as begin() and end() of a view may have different types.
