Adds tools/api_checker/: extract_api.py derives the public API surface directly
from the libclang AST (independent of documentation status), check_docs.py flags
public entries missing @sa links (and @sa on non-public ones), diff_api.py does
an overload-aware breaking/feature diff between two refs, check_macros.py cross-
checks documented macros against #define sites, and snapshot_release.py backfills
immutable per-release surface snapshots into tools/api_checker/history/ (v3.1.0
through v3.12.0) so diff_api.py can compare releases without live extraction.
POLICY.md documents what counts as public API and what stability is guaranteed.
Running this tooling against the current tree found and fixed a real documentation
backlog: ~25 new API doc pages (ordered_map's methods, json_sax's ctor/dtor/
operator=, byte_container_with_subtype's comparison operators, several orphaned
type aliases), each with a compiled and output-verified example, plus missing
@sa comments and stale/incorrect Version History entries on several existing
pages (found by diffing consecutive release pairs and checking whether the
resulting change was actually reflected in the target page's history section).
Also adds docs/home/api_changes.md, a per-release, per-function reference of
public API changes (v3.1.0 through v3.12.0) generated from the history/
snapshots, complementing (not replacing) the existing release notes.
Along the way, found and fixed several extractor bugs by testing against real
release tags rather than trusting the algorithm in isolation -- most notably an
identity-key scheme based on libclang's USR that encoded the enclosing class
template's own arity, and a since-renamed ABI inline-namespace pattern
(json_v3_11_0 vs. today's json_abi_v3_11_2) that neither of two earlier regex
attempts stripped correctly. Both are documented in extract_api.py's docstrings
and tools/api_checker/history/README.md so the failure mode doesn't recur
silently.
.github/workflows/check_api_docs.yml runs extract_api.py + check_docs.py in CI,
advisory-only for now (documented backlog may not be at zero for entities this
PR didn't touch), plus a blocking drift check on the committed
tools/api_checker/api_surface.json.

* Fix compile error when using nlohmann ordered_map with WITH_DEFAULT macros
ordered_map inherits its copy and move assignment from the underlying std vector, which requires value_type to be CopyAssignable. value_type is pair<const Key, T> whose assignment is deleted because of the const Key, so any code that assigns ordered_map (for example the ternary in NLOHMANN_JSON_FROM_WITH_DEFAULT) fails to compile (issue #5122). Provide assignment operators on ordered_map that rebuild via clear plus push_back for copy and transfer the underlying buffer for move, neither of which needs pair assignment. Also switch the map-shaped from_json overload from a transform plus inserter idiom to a range-for plus emplace, which avoids the same hazard.

* Address CI issues for ordered_map fix
Declare an explicit defaulted destructor on ordered_map so the rule of five is complete (clang-tidy cppcoreguidelines-special-member-functions and hicpp-special-member-functions). Initialize the ordered_map field in the regression test struct so GCC effective-C++ stops flagging Example_5122 with a missing member initializer.

* Suppress redundant-member-init lint on Example_5122::c
The empty brace-init on c{} is required by GCC -Weffc++ to mark the member as initialized in the synthesized default constructor, but clang-tidy readability-redundant-member-init flags the same line because ordered_map already has a default constructor. The two checks pull in opposite directions, so add a targeted NOLINT to keep both happy.

* Address review: strong exception safety in copy-assign, simplify move-assign noexcept
Copy assignment now constructs a temporary copy before move-assigning the
Container subobject, preserving *this if the copy throws. Move assignment
uses std::is_nothrow_move_assignable<Container> for a cleaner noexcept
specifier, matching the style of the move constructor.

* Restore self-assignment check in copy-assign to satisfy cert-oop54-cpp
clang-tidy's cert-oop54-cpp flagged the previous revision because it could
not recognize the implicit self-safety of the copy-then-move pattern.
Restore the explicit `if (this != &other)` guard — strong exception safety
is preserved since the temporary copy is still constructed before the
move-assign of the Container subobject.

* Address review: gate -Wself-assign-overloaded suppression on Clang version
-Wself-assign-overloaded was introduced in Clang 7. Older Clang versions fail the build with "unknown warning group" when the suppression pragma references it unconditionally. Use __has_warning inside an __clang__ branch so the suppression is only emitted on Clang versions that recognize the warning. The inner check stays inside the __clang__ guard because GCC does not provide __has_warning and would tokenize-error on the argument list.

* Address CI: drop unused gating macro to silence -Wunused-macros
The previous attempt defined JSON_TEST_5122_SUPPRESS_SELF_ASSIGN_OVERLOADED
as 0 unconditionally and then overrode it to 1 on Clang versions that recognize the warning. On those Clangs the initial define is immediately
undef'd without being read, which trips Clang's -Wunused-macros under -Weverything in the ci_test_clang job. Drop the macro and gate the
DOCTEST_CLANG_SUPPRESS_WARNING_PUSH/POP pragmas directly with __has_warning inside the existing __clang__ branch.
