Add regression test pinning current behavior (CHECK_THROWS_AS) in the null
section of unit-conversions.cpp with detailed comment explaining the C++
language-level cause (std::optional's own converting constructor wins
overload resolution over basic_json::operator T()).
Add a warning callout in conversions.md documenting that direct construction/
assignment of std::optional<T> from JSON null throws type_error 302, with a
clear workaround (use get<std::optional<T>>() or get_to() instead, which
correctly produce std::nullopt).
This is a limitation at the language level: there is no SFINAE path to
distinguish "called from inside std::optional's own constructor" from "direct
call", so fixing it would require breaking changes to operator ValueType().
A permanent fix belongs in the 4.0 type-strictness redesign (#3453).

* fix: treat single-element brace-init as copy/move
When passing a json value using brace initialization with a single element
(e.g., `json j{someObj}` or `foo({someJson})`), C++ always prefers the
initializer_list constructor over the copy/move constructor. This caused
the value to be unexpectedly wrapped in a single-element array.
This bug was previously compiler-dependent (GCC wrapped, Clang did not),
but Clang 20 started matching GCC behavior, making it a universal issue.
Fix: In the initializer_list constructor, when type deduction is enabled
and the list has exactly one element, copy/move it directly instead of
creating a single-element array.
Before:
json obj = {{"key", 1}};
json j{obj}; // -> [{"key":1}] (wrong: array)
foo({obj}); // -> [{"key":1}] (wrong: array)
After:
json j{obj}; // -> {"key":1} (correct: copy)
foo({obj}); // -> {"key":1} (correct: copy)
To explicitly create a single-element array, use json::array({value}).

* Fix: add JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS opt-in macro for issue #5074
Single-element brace initialization wrapping in an array cannot be fixed without breaking existing code. Added JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS as an opt-in macro (default 0) so users can enable copy/move semantics for single-element brace init without affecting anyone relying on the current behavior.

PR #4873 introduced a safety check in sax_parse functions to catch
nullptr passed as SAX parser object, which had been already annotated by
JSON_HEDLEY_NON_NULL macro.
Compilers (e.g. clang) which respected the non-null annotation tended to
eliminate the safety check completely in optimized builds, while
compilers which did not, compiled the safety check in. This led to
different behaviors accross different compilers/platforms and/or build
types (debug, release).
This commit reverts PR #4873 to remove this discrepancy. Passing null to
non-null annotated parameter is considered to be undefined behavior.
Fixes#5048
