Niels Lohmann 1daad8efe0 Avoid astyle's padding in ordered_map::emplace's template headers
Use detail::conjunction instead of && and drop the redundant V&& in detail::is_constructible, so astyle keeps the usual template formatting. Addresses review comment by @gregmarr.

Niels Lohmann 989b8ed841 Accept lvalues in ordered_map::emplace's value parameter
ordered_map::emplace(key, value) took the mapped value only by T&&, an
rvalue reference rather than a forwarding reference, so
ordered_json::emplace("a", value) failed to compile whenever value was
an lvalue or a const lvalue, even though the same call compiles for
json (whose object_t is std::map, with a variadic emplace). Turn the
value parameter into a separately-deduced forwarding reference,
constrained with std::is_constructible so the overloads still only
accept something convertible to the mapped type. std::map-compatible
semantics are unchanged: emplace still does nothing if the key already
exists.

Open PR #5609 also touches ordered_map.hpp (moving values on vector
growth); this change only touches the two emplace() overloads and
should not conflict.

Fixes #5673.

## Function with runtime assertions
### Unchecked access to a const value
### Unchecked object access to a const value
Function [`operator[]`](../api/basic_json/operator%5B%5D.md) implements unchecked access for arrays and objects. Whereas
a missing element is added in the case of non-const values, accessing a const value with a missing object key or an
invalid array index is undefined behavior (think of a dereferenced null pointer) and yields a runtime assertion. This
also applies to a [JSON pointer](json_pointer.md) that refers to a missing key or an invalid index.

If you are not sure whether an element exists, use checked access with the [`at` function](../api/basic_json/at.md)
