Niels Lohmann db5bd7fbcc Fix the compiler and lint failures of the json_view comparison
- all_digits(): the lambda declares its constant itself; MSVC does not
  let a lambda without captures read a constexpr local of the function
- equal(): the frame's "in document order" index is a namespace-scope
  constant (document_order); the local constexpr npos in the default
  member initializers of the local struct crashed GCC 9 and MinGW GCC
  and was not found by MSVC
- keys_differ_early() keeps the first keys in std::arrays (cpplint:
  variable-length arrays; clang-tidy: C arrays), and the basic_json
  side's first_keys() is not noexcept (key() may throw)
- the numbers of one type are compared in an if chain instead of a
  nested conditional operator
- the dump test avoids C arrays and temporary string concatenations

View comparison instructions are unchanged (Apple clang, twitter, citm,
canada: -0.1 % to +0.1 %).

Niels Lohmann 3fb7d9c710 Check the float tokens of a json_document image without a sort and a scan of every character
load(image_check::full) checked every float token of an image by sorting
the token ranges, scanning the token character by character, and comparing
the digit layout with the node's. Now:

- the ranges are sorted only if they are not sorted already (save() writes
  them in the order of the nodes, so they are);
- a token of the shape [-]digits.digits whose digit counts are the ones the
  node records (nearly all of them) is accepted by checking its digits eight
  at a time, without the general scan;
- the general scan skips runs of digits eight at a time.

Damaged tokens are still rejected as before: the check accepts exactly the
tokens that the general scan accepts.

Instructions of load(image_check::full) (develop -> now):

  macOS arm64        canada 44.6M -> 30.9M (-31 %), jeopardy 11.3M -> 10.7M,
                     citm 10.4M -> 10.0M, twitter 5.06M -> 4.94M
  Linux GCC 13       canada -50 %, jeopardy -43 %, twitter -31 %, citm -28 %
  Linux Clang 18     canada -42 %, jeopardy -48 %, twitter -35 %, citm -32 %

image_check::bounds is unchanged (within 0.4 %).

Niels Lohmann 4971200b54 Add images of json_documents: save() and load() (#5632)
* Add images of json_documents: save() and load()

An image is a document stored so that loading it needs no
parsing: save() writes the node index, the text and the decoded
strings; the static load() reads an image written by save().

load() takes a pointer and size, a borrowed vector, or an owned
rvalue vector; the nodes are copied so they are aligned and can
be edited, while the text and decoded strings stay in the image.

image_check controls how much load() trusts the input: full
checks structure, bounds, strings and numbers, the parser's own
guarantees; bounds checks structure and bounds only; none skips
all checks, for images from a trusted source.

Layout is little-endian only ("NJVI" header, nodes, text, decoded
strings), following the idea of zero-copy formats such as
FlatBuffers and YaFF; the check follows FlatBuffers' Verifier.

New errors: parse_error.116 for a malformed image or a failed
check, type_error.320 for a discarded document or a big-endian
target.

A dedicated fuzzer and 6,000 seeded corruptions, checked under
ASan/UBSan, found and fixed two gaps: unchecked reserved header
fields, and unbounded null/boolean offsets that could make
dump() throw std::length_error.

* Fix MSVC errors in image test and add image_check doc anchor

Move the raw string literal out of the CHECK macro (MSVC preprocessor),
cast 64-bit header fields to std::size_t (C4244 on 32-bit), and give the
image_check section in load.md a real anchor for the mkdocs strict build.

* Check each distinct string and float range once in the full image check

The full check scanned the contents of every string node and every float token over its own range, so many nodes pointing to one large range made load() quadratic. The structural walk now only collects the ranges; after it, each kind is sorted and checked once per distinct range. Ranges of one kind that overlap without being identical are rejected, as save() never writes them (nodes that share a value share the whole range). The cost is linear in the size of the image plus sorting the ranges.

* Make json_view.hpp pass include-what-you-use

ci_single_binaries runs IWYU with --error on every header. For json_view.hpp
it suggested adding <array> (std::array is used), the headers that json.hpp
already provides (abi_config, abi_macros, input_adapters, json_pointer,
cpp_future, string_concat, value_t, json_fwd), and <version> for
std::nullptr_t, and removing <cstddef>.

- include <array>
- keep <cstddef> (nullptr_t, size_t; IWYU attributes them to <version> and <cstring>)
- tell IWYU not to suggest the headers that json.hpp provides: the amalgamated
  json_view.hpp only includes json.hpp, so including them here would duplicate
  their definitions
- drop edit_storage.hpp, which edit.hpp includes

* Rename the emit lambda in the image writer for Qt compatibility

Qt defines emit as an empty macro, so a Qt header included before
