* docs: new design for the documentation site
Apply the brand to the Material for MkDocs site: Inter and JetBrains Mono
served by the site (upright and real italic), brand colours, blue header band
with the syntax pattern, wordmark in the header, new home page (hero, cards,
animated feature tour), 404 page, polish for tabs, search, footer, focus
rings, tables and code blocks, and theme features (code copy, previous/next
footer, TOC follow, search suggestions).
Draw the number railroad diagram, the parser callback events and the iterator
illustrations as inline SVGs that follow the light and dark scheme. The
generator scripts are in docs/mkdocs/scripts/figures; the feature slideshow
(json-light.svg, json-dark.svg, replacing json.gif on the home page) is built
by docs/mkdocs/scripts/slideshow. Decision nodes in five flowcharts become
hexagons, which need far less room.

* docs: add figures, table captions and a macro chooser
- Figures with numbered captions: SAX stepper, json_view layout and edit
stepper, exception map, JSON pointer and patch walkers, QA pipeline,
scaling and binary size charts, roadmap lanes, release timeline,
integration decision tree and namespace builder
- Table captions (nj-table-caption) on 9 pages
- Compile times: modules and PCH charts, filesystem section, re-measured
Figure 1, links between features/modules.md and compile_times.md
- Interactive macro chooser for features/arbitrary_types.md
- Link check: exclude URLs that answer the plugin with 400/401/419 or are
dead (customers.md)

* docs: macro chooser generates adl_serializer for non-default-constructible types
Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>
* docs: cross-link concept pages and API pages in See also sections
Add See also links in both directions between the concept pages (features,
home, integration) and the API pages, write API links in code font, give every
entry a comment after a dash, and show the callback event figure on the parser
callbacks page.

* docs: address review comments on the new design
- Home: add a "Latest release" button
- Sponsors: update the list and group it by tier
- Features: list all feature pages on the index page
- Releases: add highlights per release, link the 4.0 roadmap, add the first commit to the timeline
- Exceptions: prefix all example messages with the exception name
- API: no code font for format names in the See also links of the to_/from_ pages
- Merge Patch: show the document before, the patch, and the result
- Replace "--" with typographic dashes, mark external links with an icon, center Mermaid diagrams

* docs: cross-reference json_view and json_document for 3.13.0
Document the new zero-copy document/view API across the docs: add a
"Documents and views" section to the basic_json API hub linking to all
specializations, point parsing/conversion/modifying pages to the view-based
alternatives, add document/view sections to feature pages, update the
landing page to mention json_view.hpp/json_literals.hpp, and cross-link
debugging/exceptions.
Also document wide-string inputs (and ill-formed UTF-16/32 rejection),
add parse/accept examples for wide strings, fix related doc gaps, and
align features/parsing and FAQ with the added support.

* docs: fix article before std::istream in FAQ
Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>
* docs: clarify document inputs, decoding, get<T>() and editing
Address review comments: say which inputs are borrowed and that a wide
string pointer is an extra input, which values are decoded during parsing,
that get<T>() reads only built-in types directly, all forms of set() and
that the document's insert() is array-only, and how to store wide strings.

* docs: integers are converted while parsing a document
Also say "They accept every input" in basic_json_document::parse.

- Discarded values: the legacy macro only changes <= and >=; != is true by default
- Out-of-range numbers are rejected while parsing, not stored as NaN
- merge_diff round trip: point to the ordered_json caveat
- ensure_ascii example shows the escaped output
- out_of_range.405 is thrown for "remove"/"move" on the root, not "add"
- CBOR stores binary subtypes as tags
- Integer/float comparison uses exact values, not conversion
- diff, flatten, and the binary writers are depth-bounded
- FAQ: max_digits10 for serialization, trailing commas are supported
- out_of_range.407 is still thrown by to_bon8
- FetchContent_MakeAvailable needs CMake 3.14
- json_fwd.hpp contents, operator< link, RFC 7396 for merge patch
- README: dump() wording, merge_diff, MSYS2/build2, patch comment typos,
operator[] link, embedded CMake example aligned with the docs

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
default.
- json_pointer.md: link value/contains/at with JSON Pointers.
- arbitrary_types.md: note that std::optional needs no serializer.
