* Make std::hash<basic_json> consistent with operator== for numbers
operator== converts between number_integer, number_unsigned, and
number_float before comparing, so json(0), json(0U), and json(0.0)
all compare equal. hash() folded the specific value_t into the
result for each of the three numeric cases, giving each a distinct
hash and breaking the standard Hash requirement that a == b implies
hash(a) == hash(b). A std::unordered_set could therefore hold all
three as separate elements even though they compare equal.
hash() now treats all three numeric variants the same way: it
converts the value to number_float_t and combines it with a single
shared type tag, so any two numbers operator== considers equal hash
identically regardless of which internal type actually holds them.
Updated the accompanying test to check this consistency directly
(including via an actual unordered_set) instead of asserting that 0,
0U, and 0.0 hash differently, since that assumption was the bug.
Also corrected the function's own doc comment and the std::hash API
docs, which described the old behavior as intended.

* Remove now-unused number_integer_t/number_unsigned_t typedefs in hash()
Merging the three numeric branches into one that only reads
number_float_t left these two aliases unused, which several CI
configurations treat as a build error under -Wunused-local-typedefs.

* Mark the unordered_set in the hash regression test const
clang-tidy's misc-const-correctness check flagged it: the set is
never mutated after construction, only read via size().

* Normalize -0.0 in number hashes and test range ends
operator== compares numbers exactly since #5459, so equal numbers
share one value and convert to the same number_float_t. Update the
comment accordingly, map -0.0 to 0.0 before hashing (std::hash need
not do that), and test -0.0 and the ends of the integer ranges. Show
hash(0.0) in the docs example and note the change in the version
history.

* Clarify hash documentation after review
- Say "may hash differently" for null, false, and numbers, since a
collision across types is possible.
- Name the storage types (signed integer, unsigned integer,
floating-point number) instead of example literals.
- Explain that the hash survives converting an integer to
number_float_t but not the lossy conversion back, and that unequal
numbers may share a hash.
- State that the example hash values are illustrative only and vary by
platform, compiler, compiler version, and library version.

* 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.
