Fix CI failures in from_chars locale handling (PR #5237)

Three issues in the extended-locale number parsing were breaking CI:

- On Windows, _create_locale() was called with LC_ALL_MASK, a POSIX-only
  constant that doesn't exist in the Windows CRT; it needs LC_ALL there.
- `::isspace_l`/`::_isspace_l` were called with a leading `::`, but on
  glibc, mingw-w64 and some other C libraries these are macros that expand
  to a parenthesized expression, so `::` followed by the expansion is a
  syntax error ("expected unqualified-id"). Dropping the `::` fixes this
  on all affected toolchains (gcc/clang on Linux, nvcc, mingw).
- The Windows implementation assumed the full `_<funcname>_l` family is
  always available, but some MinGW toolchains only provide a subset
  (e.g. missing `_strtoll_l`/`_strtoull_l`/`_strtof_l`/`_strtold_l`).
  The extended-locale fast path is now only used for genuine MSVC
  (including clang-cl, which mimics the MSVC ABI/CRT); other Windows
  toolchains fall back to the locale-dependent standard functions.

Also fixes a clang-tidy hicpp-named-parameter/readability-named-parameter
warning-as-error on two unnamed `init_val_t` test parameters.

Verified locally with gcc/clang on Linux, clang++ in C++20 mode, and
mingw-w64 (both g++ and clang targeting x86_64-w64-mingw32).

 ## Notes
 
-### Standards compliance
-
-The library targets strict conformance with [RFC 8259](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8259.html). Both the original [JSONTestSuite](https://github.com/nst/JSONTestSuite) and its updated revision are exercised in CI; their test data is downloaded from [`nlohmann/json_test_data`](https://github.com/nlohmann/json_test_data) at configure time rather than committed to this repository (see [`tests/src/unit-testsuites.cpp`](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/develop/tests/src/unit-testsuites.cpp)):
-
-- The updated revision runs all mandatory `y_` (must-accept) and `n_` (must-reject) cases through the strict [`parse()`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/parse/) entry point; the original suite runs its `n_` cases through `parse()` and its `y_` cases through [`operator>>`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/operator_gtgt/).
-- The `i_` (implementation-defined) cases are, by RFC 8259, free to be accepted *or* rejected, so "passing all `i_` cases" is not a meaningful conformance metric. The library makes deliberate, documented choices there: nesting depth is not artificially limited, a leading UTF-8 byte order mark is silently ignored, [Unicode noncharacters](https://www.unicode.org/faq/private_use.html#nonchar1) are forwarded unchanged, invalid UTF-8 and lone/unpaired UTF-16 surrogates are rejected (stricter than required), and a number that cannot be stored without becoming `NaN`/`INF` raises [`out_of_range.406`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptionout_of_range406).
-
-One behavioral nuance is worth calling out, because a superficial test often misreads it as non-compliance: [`parse()`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/parse/) is strict and rejects trailing data after a value, whereas [`operator>>`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/operator_gtgt/) follows relaxed iostream semantics — it parses a single value and leaves the stream positioned right after it. Feeding "a valid document followed by trailing bytes" through `operator>>` reports success; the same input through `parse()` is rejected. This is a documented two-API design, not a conformance gap. See [**parsing**](https://json.nlohmann.me/features/parsing/) for details.

-    third-party maps are not, and inspecting the mapped type at class scope (for instance with
-    `#!cpp std::is_trivially_move_assignable`) makes them unusable as `ObjectType`, no matter how their template
-    arguments are adapted. This rules out `absl::btree_map`, `phmap::btree_map`, `gtl::btree_map`,
-    `robin_hood::unordered_node_map`, `folly::F14FastMap`, and `eastl::hash_map`.
-
-    `array_t` is only *named* in the class definition and is not instantiated until `basic_json` is complete, so an
-    `ArrayType` that inspects its value type at class scope is generally fine -- `boost::container::small_vector` and
-    `static_vector` both reject incomplete value types yet work here. `absl::InlinedVector` is the exception: the
-    `#!cpp std::is_trivially_move_assignable<basic_json>` it evaluates while instantiating itself re-enters the
-    library's own trait machinery mid-instantiation.
-
-!!! note "Folly requires C++20"
-
-    Folly's headers use `#!cpp consteval` and `#!cpp std::type_identity`, so any `basic_json` specialization that
-    names a Folly type has to be compiled as C++20 or later, whatever the rest of the library supports.
-
-## `ObjectType`
-
-`ObjectType` is instantiated as
-
-```cpp
-using object_t = ObjectType<StringType,                                    // key_type
-                            basic_json,                                    // mapped_type
-                            default_object_comparator_t,                   // key_compare
-                            AllocatorType<std::pair<const StringType,
-                                                    basic_json>>>;         // allocator_type
-```
-
-i.e., the template arguments follow the order and meaning of `std::map`.
-
-### Always required
-
-- The template must be usable with **four** type arguments in the order shown above. The third argument is a
-  **comparator**; containers that expect something else in this position (e.g., a hash function) need an alias template
-  or wrapper -- see [Notes](#notes).
-- An optional member type `key_compare`. If it is present it becomes
-  [`object_comparator_t`](../../api/basic_json/object_comparator_t.md); otherwise
-  [`default_object_comparator_t`](../../api/basic_json/default_object_comparator_t.md) is used.
-- Member types `key_type`, `mapped_type`, `value_type`, and `iterator`.
-- `value_type` must behave like `#!cpp std::pair<const key_type, mapped_type>`; the library accesses `.first` and
-  `.second` on it.
-- `iterator` must be default-constructible and satisfy
-  [LegacyBidirectionalIterator](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/BidirectionalIterator). The type returned
-  by `cbegin()`/`cend()` must satisfy the same requirements.
-- Constructors: default, copy, move, and from an iterator range `(first, last)`.
-- Member functions `begin()`, `end()`, `cbegin()`, `cend()`, `empty()`, `size()`, `max_size()`, `clear()`,
-  `find(key)`, `count(key)`, `emplace(key, value)`, `insert(value_type)`, `insert(first, last)`, `operator[](key)`,
-  `erase(iterator)`, and `erase(first, last)`. `erase(iterator)` may return the following iterator or `#!cpp void`;
-  in the latter case the library computes the successor itself, before erasing.
-- `erase(key)` is **optional**: if the container does not provide one, the library falls back to `find(key)` followed
-  by `erase(iterator)`.
-- `at(key)` is required only by [`to_ubjson`](../../api/basic_json/to_ubjson.md) and
-  [`to_bjdata`](../../api/basic_json/to_bjdata.md), but every container tried here provides it.
-- `emplace` and `insert(value_type)` must return `#!cpp std::pair<iterator, bool>` and must have **unique-key**
-  semantics; multimaps cannot be used.
-- The type must be swappable (via `std::swap` or an ADL `swap`).
-- The comparison operators `==` and `<`; `!=`, `<=`, `>`, and `>=` are derived from them. Where the library uses
-  three-way comparison (C++20), `==` and `<=>` are required **instead** -- the six two-way operators do not satisfy
-  it. They implement [`basic_json`'s comparison operators](../../api/basic_json/operator_eq.md).
-
-### Required for heterogeneous key lookup
-
-The overloads of [`at`](../../api/basic_json/at.md), [`operator[]`](../../api/basic_json/operator%5B%5D.md),
-[`find`](../../api/basic_json/find.md), [`contains`](../../api/basic_json/contains.md),
-[`count`](../../api/basic_json/count.md), [`erase`](../../api/basic_json/erase.md), and
-[`value`](../../api/basic_json/value.md) that accept a key type other than `object_t::key_type` require
-
-- a **transparent** comparator, i.e. [`object_comparator_t`](../../api/basic_json/object_comparator_t.md) has a member
-  type `is_transparent` (this is why the default comparator is `#!cpp std::less<>` since C++14), and
-- corresponding heterogeneous `find`, `count`, `erase`, and `operator[]` overloads on the container.
-
-### Notes
-
-#### `std::unordered_map` needs an adapter
-
-`#!cpp std::unordered_map` cannot be passed directly: its third template parameter is a hash function, but
-`basic_json` passes a comparator in that position. An alias template or wrapper that restores the expected argument
-order makes it usable:
-
-```cpp
-template<class Key, class T, class IgnoredCompare, class Allocator>
-struct unordered_map_object
-    : std::unordered_map<Key, T, std::hash<Key>, std::equal_to<Key>, Allocator>
-{
-    using base_t = std::unordered_map<Key, T, std::hash<Key>, std::equal_to<Key>, Allocator>;
-    using base_t::base_t;
-};
-
-using unordered_json = nlohmann::basic_json<unordered_map_object>;
-```
-
-Whether `#!cpp std::unordered_map` can be instantiated at all depends on the standard library: `object_t` is formed
-while `basic_json` is still incomplete (see the warning above), and libstdc++ 9 needs the size of the mapped type to
-instantiate the hash map's node type, so the adapter does not compile there. Newer libstdc++ versions, and the hash
-maps listed below, do not have that problem.
-
-The adapter above works verbatim for Abseil's, Boost's, `phmap`'s and `gtl`'s hash maps, which all place the hash
-function third and take a `#!cpp std::pair<const Key, T>` allocator fifth. Two need a different adapter:
-
-- `ankerl::unordered_dense` expects an allocator over `#!cpp std::pair<Key, T>` (non-const key), so the allocator has
-  to be rebound to that or dropped.
-- `robin_hood`'s fifth parameter is the non-type `MaxLoadFactor100`, so its adapter must drop the allocator entirely.
-
-None of these hash maps defines `key_compare`, so all of them additionally rely on `object_comparator_t` falling back
-to [`default_object_comparator_t`](../../api/basic_json/default_object_comparator_t.md); see
-[`object_comparator_t`](../../api/basic_json/object_comparator_t.md).
-
-#### Abseil hash maps
-
-`absl::flat_hash_map` and `absl::node_hash_map` tolerate an incomplete value type, but they take a hash function as
-their third template argument. The same adapter as for `#!cpp std::unordered_map` makes them usable:
-
-```cpp
-template<class Key, class T, class IgnoredCompare, class Allocator>
-struct flat_hash_object
-    : absl::flat_hash_map<Key, T, absl::Hash<Key>, std::equal_to<Key>, Allocator>
-{
-    using base_t = absl::flat_hash_map<Key, T, absl::Hash<Key>, std::equal_to<Key>, Allocator>;
-    using base_t::base_t;
-};
-
-using flat_hash_json = nlohmann::basic_json<flat_hash_object>;
-```
-
-`absl::node_hash_map` keeps references to the mapped values valid across insertions; `absl::flat_hash_map` does not,
-which makes it behave like [`ordered_json`](../../api/ordered_json.md) with respect to
-[iterator invalidation](../../api/basic_json/index.md#iterator-invalidation). Both expose a `capacity()` member
-function, so [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../../api/macros/json_diagnostics.md) treats them conservatively and keeps the
-parent pointers correct either way.
-
-#### Iteration order
-
-The library never relies on the container's iteration order for correctness; it does determine the order in which
-object keys are serialized by [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md) and visited by
-[`items`](../../api/basic_json/items.md). See [Object Order](../object_order.md).
-
-#### `capacity()` marks a container as insertion-ordered
-
-With [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../../api/macros/json_diagnostics.md) enabled, the library detects insertion-ordered maps by
-probing for a `capacity()` member function (`nlohmann::ordered_map` inherits it from `std::vector`) and refreshes all
-parent pointers after every insertion. An `ObjectType` that happens to have a `capacity()` member is therefore treated
-conservatively -- this is correct, but slower.
-
-#### Key order and duplicate keys
-
-The library does not sort or de-duplicate keys itself; the behavior described in
-[`object_t`](../../api/basic_json/object_t.md) is entirely the behavior of the chosen container.
-

-## `ArrayType`
-
-`ArrayType` is instantiated as
-
-```cpp
-using array_t = ArrayType<basic_json, AllocatorType<basic_json>>;
-```
-
-### Always required
-
-- The template must be usable with **two** type arguments (value type and allocator).
-- Member types `value_type` and `iterator`.
-- Constructors: default, copy, and move; and from an iterator range `(first, last)`.
-- Member functions `begin()`, `end()`, `cbegin()`, `cend()`, `empty()`, `size()`, `max_size()`, `clear()`,
-  `operator[](size_type)`, `back()`, `push_back()`, `emplace_back()`, `pop_back()`, `resize()`,
-  `insert()` (single element, count, and range), `erase(pos)`, and `erase(first, last)`.
-  `basic_json::insert(pos, initializer_list)` goes through the range overload, so no initializer-list `insert` is
-  needed. `at(size_type)` is **not** required: [`basic_json::at(size_type)`](../../api/basic_json/at.md) checks the
-  index itself and then uses `operator[]`.
-- `iterator` must be default-constructible, and it as well as the type returned by `cbegin()`/`cend()` must satisfy
-  [LegacyRandomAccessIterator](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/RandomAccessIterator).
-  A `#!cpp static_assert` only checks for
-  [LegacyBidirectionalIterator](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/BidirectionalIterator), but
-  [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md) (`cend() - 1`),
-  [`erase(idx)`](../../api/basic_json/erase.md) (`begin() + idx`), and the random-access operations of
-  [`basic_json::iterator`](../../api/basic_json/begin.md) require random access.
-- The comparison operators, as for [`ObjectType`](#objecttype): `==` and `<`, or `==` and `<=>` under C++20.
-
-### Required for individual functions
-
-- A member type `value_type`, for [`to_bson`](../../api/basic_json/to_bson.md) of an array.
-- A constructor from `(count, value)`, for
-  [`basic_json(size_type, const basic_json&)`](../../api/basic_json/basic_json.md).
-- Swappability, via `#!cpp std::swap` or an ADL `swap`, for [`swap(array_t&)`](../../api/basic_json/swap.md).
-
-!!! note "`capacity()` is optional"
-
-    With [`JSON_DIAGNOSTICS`](../../api/macros/json_diagnostics.md) enabled, the library reads `array_t::capacity()`
-    to find out whether adding an element reallocated the array and moved its elements, which would invalidate the
-    parent pointers. An array type without a `capacity()` member function is handled conservatively: the parent
-    pointers of all elements are refreshed after every insertion, which makes adding *n* elements cost O(*n*²). Only
-    diagnostics builds pay this; without them `capacity()` is never called.

-- Constructors: default, copy, move, from `#!cpp const char*` (which must not be `#!cpp explicit`), from
-  `#!cpp (const char*, size_type)`, and from `#!cpp (size_type, char)`; and copy or move assignment.
-- Member functions `size()`, `clear()`, `resize(n, c)`, `data()`, `push_back(char)`, and `operator[]`
-  (const and non-const, returning references). `c_str()` and `back()` are **not** required.
-- `data()` must return a pointer to a contiguous, **null-terminated** buffer -- the parser hands it to
-  `#!cpp std::strtoull`. A type whose `data()` is not null-terminated does not fail to compile; it silently
-  misparses numbers.
-- `append(const char*, size_type)`, used by [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md), and `append(const StringType&)`,
-  used by the CBOR reader for indefinite-length strings. The library's internal string concatenation additionally has
-  to append a `#!cpp char` and a `#!cpp const char*`; for each it selects between `append(arg)`, `#!cpp operator+=`,
-  `append(first, last)`, and `append(data, size)`.
-- The comparison operator `==` against another `StringType`, and `<` for use as a key of the chosen
-  [`ObjectType`](#objecttype) (with the default comparator, `#!cpp std::less<>` must be able to compare two
-  `StringType` values, and a `StringType` with the key types used for lookup). `!=` is never applied to a
-  `StringType`, and `==` against `#!cpp const char*` is resolved by the implicit `#!cpp const char*` constructor.
-
-### Required for the binary formats
-
-- `resize(n)`, used by the readers to make room for a block of bytes.
-- Non-const `operator[]`, into which the readers `#!cpp std::memcpy` those bytes.
-
-### Required for JSON Pointer, `flatten`, and `diff`
-
-- A static member `npos` and the member function `find_first_of(char, size_type)` -- together with `data()`,
-  `reserve(n)`, and `append(const char*, size_type)` they implement the escaping and unescaping of reference tokens
-  described in RFC 6901. Neither `find(const StringType&, size_type)`, nor `substr(pos, count)`, nor
-  `replace(pos, count, const StringType&)` is required.
-- `empty()`.
-- `begin()` and `end()` -- used by
-  [`operator[](const json_pointer&)`](../../api/basic_json/operator%5B%5D.md) to decide whether a reference token
-  denotes an array index.

-
-!!! warning "A `std::pmr::string` mostly does not use the memory resource you choose"
-
-    `basic_json` cannot be given an allocator or a memory resource. `AllocatorType` is default-constructed at every
-    allocation and has to be stateless (see [`AllocatorType`](#allocatortype)), and string values the library creates
-    are constructed with their own default allocator. So:
-
-    - Every string the library itself produces -- from [`parse`](../../api/basic_json/parse.md), from
-      [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md), or by default construction -- allocates from
-      `#!cpp std::pmr::get_default_resource()`.
-    - **Copying** an arena-backed string into a value silently drops its memory resource: the copy lands on the
-      default resource, because `#!cpp std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator` does not propagate on copy construction.
-      Nothing warns about this.
-    - **Moving** one in does keep it, and later growth still allocates from that arena -- but it does not survive a
-      copy of the enclosing `basic_json`.
-    - Passing `#!cpp std::pmr::polymorphic_allocator` as `AllocatorType` does not work around any of this; it does
-      not compile.
-
-    Apart from moving a string in, the only way to redirect these allocations is the process-global
-    `#!cpp std::pmr::set_default_resource()`.
-
-!!! tip "Reference implementation"
-
-    The unit test `tests/src/unit-alt-string.cpp` contains `alt_string`, a minimal string type that satisfies the
-    requirements needed for the tested subset of the API. It is a good starting point for a custom `StringType`.
-
-## `BooleanType`
-
-`boolean_t` is stored **directly** inside `basic_json`, as a member of an anonymous union.
-
-### Always required
-
-- A literal type that is trivially default-constructible, trivially copyable, and trivially destructible; otherwise the
-  union's special member functions are deleted.
-- **Implicitly** convertible from `#!cpp bool` -- an `#!cpp explicit` constructor is not enough, because the
-  `to_json` overload for a custom `BooleanType` is constrained on `#!cpp std::is_convertible` -- and contextually
-  convertible to `#!cpp bool` (here an `#!cpp explicit operator bool` is fine).
-- Comparison operators `==`, `!=`, `<`, `<=`, `>`, `>=` (or `<=>`).
-- Convertible from and to `#!cpp bool` through the serializer, because
-  [`get<bool>()`](../../api/basic_json/get.md) is used internally.
-
-There is little reason to use anything other than `#!cpp bool` here.
-
-### Compatible types
-
-`#!cpp bool` is the only usable choice. Another trivially copyable type that is implicitly convertible to and from
-`#!cpp bool` -- `#!cpp std::uint8_t`, say -- does compile, and JSON booleans still round-trip, but the type then
-serves as both `boolean_t` and an ordinary integer: `basic_json` can no longer be constructed or assigned from a
-`#!cpp std::uint8_t` at all (the boolean and unsigned-integer `to_json` overloads become ambiguous), and
-[`get<std::uint8_t>()`](../../api/basic_json/get.md) on a number throws
-[`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) instead of returning the value.
-
-## `NumberIntegerType` and `NumberUnsignedType`
-
-Both types are stored **directly** inside `basic_json`'s union.
-
-### Always required
-
-- `#!cpp std::is_integral` must be satisfied: `NumberIntegerType` must be a **signed** integer type,
-  `NumberUnsignedType` an **unsigned** integer type. Class types are not supported -- among others, the constructors
-  taking integer values are constrained on `#!cpp std::is_integral`.
-- Trivially default-constructible, trivially copyable, and trivially destructible (union member).
-- `#!cpp std::numeric_limits` must be specialized for both types.
-- `NumberUnsignedType` must be able to represent the absolute value of every `NumberIntegerType` value; serialization
-  of negative numbers converts the value to `NumberUnsignedType`.
-- Both types must fit into the internal 64-character number buffer used by
-  [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md), which is the case for all standard integer types.
-- [`std::hash<basic_json>`](../../api/basic_json/std_hash.md) additionally requires `#!cpp std::hash` specializations.
-
-### Notes
-
-The number types influence what the parser accepts: an integer literal that does not round-trip through the chosen type
-is stored as [`number_float_t`](../../api/basic_json/number_float_t.md) instead. Choosing types narrower than 64 bits
-therefore silently changes parse results rather than raising an error. See
-[Number Handling](number_handling.md) for details.

-
-## `NumberFloatType`
-
-`number_float_t` is stored **directly** inside `basic_json`'s union.
-
-### Always required
-
-- Trivially default-constructible, trivially copyable, and trivially destructible (union member).
-- `#!cpp std::numeric_limits` must be specialized; `max_digits10` is used to size the conversion.
-- `#!cpp std::isfinite` must be applicable to the type.
-
-### Required for parsing and serialization
-
-`NumberFloatType` must be one of `#!cpp float`, `#!cpp double`, or `#!cpp long double`:
-
-- The [parser](../parsing/index.md) converts number literals with `#!cpp std::strtof`, `#!cpp std::strtod`, or
-  `#!cpp std::strtold`; the library provides overloads for exactly these three types.
-- [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md) falls back to `#!cpp std::snprintf` with the `%g` and `%Lg` conversion
-  specifiers, for which the library likewise provides only `#!cpp double` and `#!cpp long double` overloads
-  (`#!cpp float` is promoted to `#!cpp double`).
-
-If `#!cpp std::numeric_limits<NumberFloatType>` describes an IEEE 754 binary32 or binary64 number, `dump` uses the
-Grisu2 algorithm, which produces the shortest representation that round-trips. Otherwise the `snprintf` fallback with
-`max_digits10` digits is used.
-
-### Required for the binary formats
-
-`NumberFloatType` must be `#!cpp float` or `#!cpp double`. The writers for
-[CBOR, MessagePack, UBJSON, BJData, and BSON](../binary_formats/index.md) map a floating-point value onto an IEEE 754
-binary32 or binary64 field and have no encoding for `#!cpp long double`.

-
-## `AllocatorType`
-
-`AllocatorType` is instantiated with **one** argument, for each of `object_t`, `array_t`, `string_t`, `binary_t`,
-`basic_json`, and `#!cpp std::pair<const StringType, basic_json>`.
-
-### Always required
-
-- The template must be usable with exactly one type argument. The library instantiates `AllocatorType<T>` directly and
-  never uses `#!cpp std::allocator_traits<...>::rebind_alloc`.
-- It must satisfy the [Allocator](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/Allocator) named requirement so that
-  `#!cpp std::allocator_traits` can be used with it.
-- It must be **default-constructible and stateless**. Objects are allocated with a default-constructed allocator and
-  deallocated with a *different* default-constructed allocator, and
-  [`get_allocator()`](../../api/basic_json/get_allocator.md) returns a default-constructed instance. Allocators
-  carrying state are not supported, so there is no way to tell a `basic_json` where to allocate from; see the note
-  under [`StringType`](#stringtype) for what that means in practice. A stateful allocator is **not diagnosed**: it
-  compiles and silently ignores the state.
-- It must support **incomplete types**: `AllocatorType<basic_json>` is instantiated inside the definition of
-  `basic_json` itself.
-- `#!cpp std::allocator_traits<AllocatorType<basic_json>>::pointer` becomes
-  [`basic_json::pointer`](../../api/basic_json/index.md#container-types), and iterators are constructed from raw
-  `#!cpp basic_json*` values. The `pointer` type must therefore be a plain pointer; fancy pointers are not supported.

-## `JSONSerializer`
-
-`JSONSerializer` is instantiated as `JSONSerializer<T, void>` and defaults to
-[`adl_serializer`](../../api/adl_serializer/index.md).
-
-### Always required
-
-- The template must accept **two** type arguments. It does not have to give the second one a default -- `basic_json`
-  declares the parameter as `#!cpp template<typename T, typename SFINAE = void> class JSONSerializer`, so uses such as
-  `#!cpp JSONSerializer<T>` inside the library supply `#!cpp void` themselves. The second parameter exists so that
-  partial specializations can be constrained by SFINAE.
-- For every type `T` that is converted **to** a JSON value, a static member function
-  `#!cpp static void to_json(basic_json&, T)` must exist.
-- For every type `T` that is converted **from** a JSON value, either
-  `#!cpp static void from_json(const basic_json&, T&)` or `#!cpp static T from_json(const basic_json&)` must exist.
-  The latter form is required for types that are not default-constructible; see
-  [Arbitrary Types Conversions](../arbitrary_types.md).
-- To support the [converting constructor](../../api/basic_json/basic_json.md) between different `basic_json`
-  specializations, `to_json` must be available for `boolean_t`, `number_integer_t`, `number_unsigned_t`,
-  `number_float_t`, `string_t`, `object_t`, `array_t`, and `binary_t` of the *source* specialization.

-### Always required
-
-- A non-`final` class type -- [`byte_container_with_subtype`](../../api/byte_container_with_subtype/index.md) derives
-  from it publicly.
-- A member type `value_type` that is **exactly one byte** wide (e.g., `#!cpp std::uint8_t`, `#!cpp char`, or
-  `#!cpp std::byte`). Readers and writers reinterpret the container's storage as raw bytes. A wider `value_type` is
-  **not diagnosed**: it compiles and silently produces wrong results.
-- Contiguous storage: the binary readers `#!cpp std::memcpy` into `#!cpp &binary[n]`, the writers `reinterpret_cast`
-  `data()`.

-## `CustomBaseClass`
-
-`CustomBaseClass` is an extension point: unless it is `#!cpp void` (the default, which selects the empty
-`nlohmann::json_default_base`), `basic_json` publicly derives from it.
-
-### Always required
-
-- A non-`final`, default-constructible class type.
-- `basic_json` is copy-/move-constructible and copy-/move-assignable only if `CustomBaseClass` is.
-
-### Notes
-
-`basic_json` is documented to be a
-[StandardLayoutType](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/StandardLayoutType). Because `basic_json` has
-non-static data members of its own, a `CustomBaseClass` with non-static data members forfeits this guarantee.
-
-Note the namespace of `CustomBaseClass` becomes an associated namespace of `basic_json` for the purpose of
-argument-dependent lookup.
-
-See [`json_base_class_t`](../../api/basic_json/json_base_class_t.md) for an example.

-
-## Cross-specialization conversions
-
-Converting a value from one `basic_json` specialization into another (see the
-[converting constructor](../../api/basic_json/basic_json.md)) imposes two additional requirements that are not
-diagnosed at compile time. With assertions enabled they abort on the `#!cpp JSON_ASSERT` at the end of the converting
-constructor; under `#!cpp NDEBUG` they fail **silently** at runtime:
-
-- The target `string_t` must be directly constructible from the source `string_t`. Otherwise the string is converted to
-  an array of character codes.
-- The target `object_t::key_type` must be directly constructible from the source object's key type. Otherwise the
-  object is converted to an array of key/value pairs.
-
-See [issue #3425](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/3425), [`string_t`](../../api/basic_json/string_t.md), and
-[`object_t`](../../api/basic_json/object_t.md).

+Parses the string [first, last) into the numeric type T.
+
+This implementation merely delegates to `std::from_chars` with one noteworthy
+difference: Different C++ standard library implementations do not agree on
+whether `value` should be set in the out-of-range case for floating-point
+numbers. Presently, libstdc++ leaves `value` unchanged whereas libc++ and MS STL
+set `value` to +/-0 or +/-inf which allows its users to distinguish between the
+various cases of over- and underflow. The C++ proposal [P4168][1] details this
+discrepancy and advocates to standardize the latter behavior.
+
+Since we need to be able to distinguish absolute underflow (+/-0) from absolute
+overflow (+/-inf), this implementation "corrects" the out-of-range behavior
+accordingly by estimating the effective exponent through manual string parsing.
