* Review and extend the documentation, and check it in CI
A review of all documentation pages found factual errors, dead links,
missing cross-references, and gaps in examples. This fixes them and adds
checks so the same problems are caught automatically.
Fixes:
- wrong signatures and version histories (operator!= C++20 member,
binary() subtype type, get<PointerType>(), JSON_NO_THREAD_LOCAL, ...)
- stale descriptions (number parsing since #5283, UBJSON table, SAX
example that no longer compiled, tsl::ordered_map advice)
- dead internal and external links; repology.org badges (the domain is
suspended) replaced by badges that query the registries directly
- deprecation notes link the migration guide; the guide itself fixed
Additions:
- "See also" sections, cross-references, 25 runnable examples, 12
Mermaid diagrams, new API pages for json_pointer::operator<=> and
byte_container_with_subtype::operator==/!=
- landing page, guides for untrusted input and performance
- "unreleased" badge after versions newer than the latest release
Checks:
- strict documentation build (broken links/anchors fail it); CI and
the publish workflow fetch the full history the build needs
- weekly external link check, Mermaid syntax check in CI
- check_structure.py: example titles, heading levels, alt texts,
header links, docset index coverage; its unused-example check works
again
- all examples produce the same output on every platform

* Keep the customer links that could not be fixed
A dead link on the customers page is still the evidence of where the
use of the library was documented. Keep the original URLs of the entries
without a working replacement (Marne, Cisco Webex Desk Camera, Philips
Hue, CyberArk) and exclude exactly these URLs from the link check.

* Correct the duplicate-key recipe's claim about SAX positions
The SAX interface's key() receives no position either; only parse_error()
does. Also note that the recipe does not report the path to the repeated
key (see discussion #5085).

* Correct documentation errors found while hunting for bugs
- patch/patch_inplace: list the JSON pointer errors parse_error.106-109
and out_of_range.402/404, and quote the actual parse_error.105 message.
- unflatten: list parse_error.106/107/108 and out_of_range.404.
- to_bson: list out_of_range.415 (binary subtype above 255) and note
that 412 and 415 are new in 3.13.0.
- to_string: state that string_t must be convertible to std::string, also
in the StringType requirements table.
- JSON Lines: a `while (input >> j)` loop also throws after the last value
for concatenated JSON values; show a loop that works for both.
- BON8: a string gets 0xFF only if nothing follows it in the message; a
string at the end of an array or object is ended by 0xFE.
- custom_string_type.hpp: add operator+=(char), which the "Always
required" list asks for (json_pointer::to_string, flatten, unflatten,
and diff did not compile), and an ADL int_to_string for diff and items.

* Cache the release headers with functools.lru_cache
Codacy (Pylint) flagged the mutable default argument that header() used
as its cache. functools.lru_cache keeps the same memoization without it.
The script's output is unchanged.

* Reserve capacity in from_json() object conversion when supported
The object-to-container from_json() overload filled the target
container one element at a time without reserving capacity, even
when the target type supports reserve() (e.g. std::unordered_map)
and the number of elements is already known. This caused unnecessary
rehashing while parsing large objects into such containers.
Add a reserve-detecting overload (from_json_object_impl), mirroring
the priority_tag-based SFINAE technique already used by the array
conversion path (from_json_array_impl), so that reserve(size()) is
called up front when available and the loop falls back unchanged
otherwise (e.g. for std::map).
Fixes#5406

* Update doc example outputs for new object-conversion iteration order
Reserving capacity in from_json()'s object-conversion path before
inserting elements changes libstdc++'s std::unordered_map bucket
layout, which changes the iteration order used by
get__ValueType_const.cpp, get_to.cpp and operator__ValueType.cpp to
print the elements of a converted std::unordered_map<std::string,
json>. Verified against a clean develop checkout (built with the
same GCC/libstdc++ used in CI) that the old order was produced
without this PR's change and the new order is produced with it, and
that the three affected examples now match their updated expected
output byte-for-byte.

* Factor out a reserve-dispatch helper instead of duplicating the object from_json loop
Addresses review feedback from @gregmarr on PR #5472: the emplace loop no
longer needs to exist twice for the reserve/no-reserve cases. A small
from_json_object_reserve() overload pair (SFINAE-dispatched on whether
reserve() exists, mirroring the priority_tag technique used elsewhere)
either calls reserve() or is a no-op; from_json_object_impl() calls it once.

* Inline from_json_object_impl into from_json now that it is called only once
Addresses review feedback from @gregmarr on PR #5472: with the reserve
loop de-duplicated, from_json_object_impl no longer needs to be a
separate function that from_json immediately delegates to.
