Niels Lohmann a22140705f Merge branch 'develop' into natvis-json-default-base

Niels Lohmann 1e50d65882 Match json_default_base in both its current and 3.12.0 namespace
Since #5238, json_default_base lives directly in the (inline, ABI-tagged)
library namespace, e.g. nlohmann::json_abi_v3_12_0::json_default_base, and
no longer in detail. The fallback entries only named
<ns>::detail::json_default_base, so they would not match anything built
from the current headers or any later release. Emit an entry for both
names: the non-detail one for current code, the detail one for users of
3.12.0 (the version in #4972).

Niels Lohmann 055158bbfa Document the json_default_base natvis fallback and regenerate natvis
Explain why a visualizer on the empty base class works, fix the
indentation of the new entry, and regenerate nlohmann_json.natvis from
the template (now covering all ABI tag combinations on develop).

The conversion is implicit unless [`JSON_USE_IMPLICIT_CONVERSIONS`](../macros/json_use_implicit_conversions.md)
