Document the node index of json_view on the architecture page

A new section describes the 16-byte node: its fields, how integers, floats, and object members are stored, how views navigate without pointers, and a worked example. The feature page and the pages of basic_json_document and node_count link to it where they mention the 16 bytes. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>
Address the cpplint findings of json_view's materialize()

 - **Trivial integration**. Our whole code consists of a single header file [`json.hpp`](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/blob/develop/single_include/nlohmann/json.hpp). That's it. No library, no subproject, no dependencies, no complex build system. The class is written in vanilla C++11. All in all, everything should require no adjustment of your compiler flags or project settings. The library is also included in all popular [package managers](https://json.nlohmann.me/integration/package_managers/).

- **Serious testing**. Our code is heavily [unit-tested](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/tree/develop/tests/src) and covers [100%](https://coveralls.io/r/nlohmann/json) of the code, including all exceptional behavior. Furthermore, we checked with [Valgrind](https://valgrind.org) and the [Clang Sanitizers](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/index.html) that there are no memory leaks. [Google OSS-Fuzz](https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz/tree/master/projects/json) additionally runs fuzz tests against all parsers 24/7, effectively executing billions of tests so far. To maintain high quality, the project is following the [Core Infrastructure Initiative (CII) best practices](https://bestpractices.coreinfrastructure.org/projects/289). See the [quality assurance](https://json.nlohmann.me/community/quality_assurance) overview documentation.

 - When using `get<ENUM_TYPE>()`, undefined JSON values will default to the first pair specified in your map. Select this default pair carefully. If you desire an exception in this circumstance use `NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM_STRICT()` which behaves identically except for throwing an exception on unrecognized values.
 - If an enum or JSON value is specified more than once in your map, the first matching occurrence from the top of the map will be returned when converting to or from JSON.

+Deserializes a given input to a JSON value using the BON8 (Binary Object Notation 8) serialization format.
+
+1. Reads from a compatible input.
+2. Reads from an iterator range, or an iterator and a sentinel of a different type (C++20 ranges support).
+
+The exact mapping and its limitations are described on a [dedicated page](../../features/binary_formats/bon8.md).
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`InputType`
+:   A compatible input, for instance:
+
+    - an `std::istream` object
+    - a `FILE` pointer
+    - a C-style array of characters
+    - a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
+    - a container `obj` for which `begin(obj)` and `end(obj)` produce a valid pair of iterators
+      (as found via ADL or member functions, with semantics compatible to `std::begin` and `std::end`)
+
+`IteratorType`
+:   a compatible iterator type
+
+`SentinelType`
+:   defaults to `IteratorType`; may be a different type comparable to `IteratorType` via `operator!=`, for instance.
+
+    - a custom sentinel type for C++20 ranges
+    - `std::default_sentinel_t`, when `IteratorType` is `std::counted_iterator`
+
+## Parameters
+
+`i` (in)
+:   an input in BON8 format convertible to an input adapter
+
+`first` (in)
+:   iterator to the start of the input
+
+`last` (in)
+:   iterator to the end of the input, or a sentinel value that compares equal to the end iterator with `operator!=`
+
+`strict` (in)
+:   whether to expect the input to be consumed until EOF (`#!cpp true` by default)
+
+`allow_exceptions` (in)
+:   whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
+
+## Return value
+
+deserialized JSON value; in case of a parse error and `allow_exceptions` set to `#!cpp false`, the return value will be
+`value_t::discarded`. The latter can be checked with [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).
+
+## Exception safety
+
+Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
+
+## Exceptions
+
+- Throws [parse_error.110](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error110) if the given input ends prematurely or
+  the end of the file was not reached when `strict` was set to true
+- Throws [parse_error.112](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error112) if a parse error occurs, for instance
+  an invalid byte, a string that is not valid UTF-8, or an object key that is not a string
+
+## Complexity

+Checks whether the input is valid JSON, accepting and rejecting exactly what

+## Template parameters

+## Parameters

+:   whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or

+
+A parsed JSON text, held as a flat index of its values
+([16 bytes per value](../../home/architecture.md#node-index-of-json-views)) instead of a tree of `BasicJsonType` values.
+Strings and numbers stay in the source text; only strings that contain escapes are decoded, into one buffer owned by

+
+Both overloads accept exactly what [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) accepts, with the same
+`ignore_comments`/`ignore_trailing_commas` options, but build a [`basic_json_document`](index.md) (a flat index into
+the input) instead of a tree of `BasicJsonType` values.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`InputType`
+:   A compatible input, for instance:
+
+    - a `#!cpp std::string`, `#!cpp std::string_view`, or a C-style array of characters
+    - a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
+    - a container for which `#!cpp obj.data()` and `#!cpp obj.size()` give contiguous single-byte access, e.g.
+      `#!cpp std::vector<char>` or `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`
+    - an `#!cpp std::istream` object, or anything else [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) accepts
+
+`IteratorType`
+:   a compatible iterator type, for instance a pair of pointers such as `ptr` and `ptr + len`, or a pair of
+    `#!cpp std::string::iterator`
+
+## Parameters
+
+`input` (in)
+:   Input to parse from.
+
+`allow_exceptions` (in)
+:   whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
+
+`ignore_comments` (in)
+:   whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
+    (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
+
+`ignore_trailing_commas` (in)
+:   whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or
+    yield a parse error (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
+
+`first` (in)
+:   iterator to the start of a character range
+
+`last` (in)
+:   iterator to the end of a character range
+
+## Return value
+
+The parsed document. If `allow_exceptions` is `#!cpp false` and the input is not valid JSON, the returned document is
+discarded; see [`is_discarded`](is_discarded.md).
+
+## Exceptions
+
+Throws the same exception [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) throws for the same input and options --
+the same exception id, message, and position -- because on a failing input the library's own parser is run on the
+same bytes to produce the diagnostic. Additionally throws
+[`out_of_range.416`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionout_of_range416) if the input is 4 GiB or larger, a size
+[`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) does not reject.
+
+## Complexity
+
+Linear in the length of the input.
+
+## Notes
+
+**Ownership.** Whether the document borrows `input` or owns a copy of it depends on its value category and type:
+
+| `input`                                                                             | ownership                                                    |
+|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
+| lvalue byte container (`std::string`, `std::vector<char>`, ...), `std::string_view`, C string, character array | **borrowed** -- `input` must outlive the document |
+| rvalue `#!cpp std::string`                                                            | **owned**, moved in without a copy                            |
+| rvalue byte container other than `#!cpp std::string`                                  | **owned**, copied                                             |
+| stream, wide string, or anything else read through the general input adapter          | **owned**, read into a buffer (a stream is read to its end)   |
+
+For overload (2), a pair of pointers to single-byte integers (e.g. `#!cpp const char*`, `#!cpp std::uint8_t*`) is
+borrowed. From C++20 on, so is any other contiguous iterator over single bytes, such as
+`#!cpp std::vector<char>::iterator` or `#!cpp std::string::const_iterator`. Before C++20 these iterators cannot be
+told apart from other class-type iterators, so their range is read into an owned buffer, as is any non-contiguous
+range (e.g. of a `#!cpp std::list<char>`).
+
+See [`owns_source`](owns_source.md) to check which happened after a call, and the
+[feature page](../../features/json_view.md) for the reasoning.
+
+**Numbers.** As for [`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md), an integer literal too large for the 64-bit
+integer type becomes a floating-point value.

+(Re-)parses `input` into `#!cpp *this`, discarding the document's previous value and reusing its memory (the node
+index, the decoded-string buffer, and, if applicable, the owned copy of the text) rather than allocating a fresh
+document. [`parse()`](parse.md) is implemented in terms of this function, applied to a default-constructed document.
+
+## Template parameters
+
+`InputType`
+:   A compatible input; see [`parse`](parse.md#template-parameters).
+
+## Parameters
+
+`input` (in)
+:   Input to parse from.
+
+`allow_exceptions` (in)
+:   whether to throw exceptions in case of a parse error (optional, `#!cpp true` by default)
+
+`ignore_comments` (in)
+:   whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
+    (`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
+
+`ignore_trailing_commas` (in)
+:   whether trailing commas in arrays or objects should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or

+
+## Notes
+
+Every view taken from `#!cpp *this` before the call -- including the previous [`root()`](root.md) -- is invalidated,
+whether or not the new parse succeeds; take fresh views from [`root()`](root.md) afterward.
+
+`input` is borrowed or owned by the same rules as [`parse()`](parse.md#notes); a document can borrow on one call and
+own on the next, since ownership is decided freshly each time.

+`#!cpp std::vector::shrink_to_fit()`, this is a non-binding request: the library may keep more capacity than strictly

+## Notes
+
+!!! warning "Invalidates views"
+
+    Unlike moving the document, `shrink_to_fit()` **invalidates every view taken from this document before the
+    call**, including a previously obtained [`root()`](root.md): the node index is moved into a new, smaller
+    allocation, and the old one is freed. Take a fresh view from [`root()`](root.md) after calling this function.
+
+This is unlike `#!cpp std::vector::shrink_to_fit()`, which promises nothing about validity but in practice often
+leaves iterators alone when it did not need to reallocate; here, an implementation that avoids a reallocation when
+possible would be an internal optimization only, not a guarantee to rely on.

+would be; the JSON nesting depth is limited only by available memory, as for `BasicJsonType::parse()` itself.
+
+Unlike parsing with [`JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS`](../macros/json_diagnostic_positions.md) enabled, the values
+produced by `materialize()` do not carry source positions: there is no lexer run during the replay to record them.
+
+Calling `materialize()` on the same view repeatedly builds a new, independent `BasicJsonType` value each time; it

+
+When defined to `1`, [`operator>>`](../operator_gtgt.md) and [`sax_parse`](../basic_json/sax_parse.md) with
+`strict = false` leave a `#!cpp std::istream` positioned right after the parsed value for every value type. By default,
+the character that terminates a number is consumed as well.
+
+The macro only affects reading from a `#!cpp std::istream` when the rest of the stream is not required to be consumed.
+[`parse`](../basic_json/parse.md), [`accept`](../basic_json/accept.md), and all other inputs (strings, iterators,
+containers, `#!cpp FILE*`) are never affected.
+
+## Default definition
+
+The default value is `0` (disabled — existing behavior is preserved).
+
+```cpp
+#define JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION 0
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+!!! note "Background"
+
+    A number is the only JSON value whose end can be detected solely by reading the character that follows it. By
+    default, that character is consumed and not put back, so the stream is left one byte too far after a number, and
+    only after a number:
+
+    ```cpp
+    std::istringstream input("1true");
+    json j;
+    input >> j;  // j == 1, but the stream now starts at "rue"
+    ```
+
+    With this macro, the character is only looked at and left in the stream, so the stream starts at `true`. This
+    does not require the stream buffer to support putting a character back.
+
+    This was not changed unconditionally, because code can depend on the consumed character, even unknowingly (see
+    [#5340](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/5340)). Both of the following work by default only because the
+    character after each number is swallowed, and behave differently with this macro:
+
+    ```cpp
+    std::istringstream input("1,2,3");
+    json j1, j2, j3;
+    input >> j1 >> j2 >> j3;  // default: 1, 2, 3
+                              // with the macro: throws parse_error.101 at the ','
+    ```
+
+    ```cpp
+    std::istringstream input("42\nfoo");
+    json j;
+    std::string line;
+    input >> j;
+    std::getline(input, line);  // default: "foo"
+                                // with the macro: "" (like after reading an int with >>)
+    ```
+
+    In both cases, the behavior with the macro is what you already get today when the value is not a number: `"a","b"`
+    fails at the `,`, and `std::getline` after `{}` returns an empty string. This macro offers an opt-in path to
+    the consistent behavior ahead of version 4.0.0, where it is planned to become the default.
+
+!!! warning "Opt-in only"
+
+    This macro must be defined **before** including `<nlohmann/json.hpp>`. Defining it after the include has no
+    effect.
+
+!!! note "ABI compatibility"
+
+    The value of this macro is encoded in the [namespace](../../features/namespace.md) (tag `_psp`), resulting in
+    distinct symbol names. Translation units compiled with and without it can therefore be linked into the same program
+    without One Definition Rule (ODR) violations, but they cannot exchange instances of library types.
+
+!!! tip "Workaround without the macro"
+
+    Separate the values in the stream with whitespace. The character consumed after a number is then the separator,
+    and whitespace before the next value is skipped anyway.
+
+## Examples
+
+??? example "Default behavior (macro not defined)"
+
+    Without the macro, the character after a number is consumed:
+
+    ```cpp
+    #include <iostream>
+    #include <sstream>
+    #include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
+
+    using json = nlohmann::json;

+    int main()
+    {
+        std::istringstream input("1true");
+        json j1, j2;
+        input >> j1;  // j1 == 1
+        input >> j2;  // throws parse_error.101: the stream now starts at "rue"
+    }
+    ```
+
+??? example "Opt-in precise stream position (macro defined to 1)"
+
+    With the macro, the stream is positioned right after the number:
+
+    ```cpp
+    #define JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION 1
+    #include <iostream>
+    #include <sstream>

+# Assurance case
+
+This page argues why the library meets its security requirements. It describes the threats the library faces, where the
+trust boundaries lie, and how the library's design and the [quality assurance](quality_assurance.md) counter these
+threats. To report a vulnerability, see the [security policy](security_policy.md).
+
+## Threat model
+
+The library parses, stores, and serializes JSON values in memory. It does not open network connections, does not open
+files (it only reads from streams or `std::FILE*` handles that the caller has already opened), does not read environment
+variables, and does not implement cryptography or handle credentials.
+
+The primary threat is therefore **untrusted input**: JSON text or binary data (BJData, BSON, CBOR, MessagePack, UBJSON)
+that an attacker controls, passed to [`parse`](../api/basic_json/parse.md), [`accept`](../api/basic_json/accept.md),
+[`sax_parse`](../api/basic_json/sax_parse.md), or one of the `from_*` functions such as
+[`from_cbor`](../api/basic_json/from_cbor.md). Such input may try to
+
+- make the library read or write out of bounds (malformed lengths, truncated input, invalid UTF-8),
+- trigger undefined behavior (integer overflow in sizes or numbers, invalid casts),
+- exhaust memory (huge announced sizes), or
+- exhaust the call stack (deeply nested arrays and objects).
+
+## Trust boundaries
+
+- **Untrusted:** all serialized input read by the parser, the SAX interface, and the binary readers. The library must
+  handle every possible input by either producing a value or throwing a [`parse_error`](../home/exceptions.md#parse-errors)
+  (or returning `false` when exceptions are disabled for the call).
+- **Trusted:** the C++ code that calls the library. Calling a function with violated preconditions, for instance
+  accessing an array with [`operator[]`](../api/basic_json/operator%5B%5D.md) out of range, is a programming error and
+  not a security boundary. Such preconditions are checked with [runtime assertions](../features/assertions.md) in debug
+  builds; functions such as [`at`](../api/basic_json/at.md) offer checked access with exceptions.
+
+## Secure design
+
+- **Strict parsing.** The parser accepts exactly the JSON grammar of [RFC 8259](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8259).
+  Extensions such as [comments](../features/comments.md) and [trailing commas](../features/trailing_commas.md) must be
+  enabled explicitly. Invalid UTF-8 is rejected.
+- **Errors are reported, not ignored.** Malformed input results in a [`parse_error`](../home/exceptions.md#parse-errors)
+  with the byte position of the error. Binary readers do not trust announced sizes: strings and binary values grow
+  only as bytes are actually read, arrays reserve at most a fixed number of elements up front, and sizes that no
+  container can hold are rejected.
+- **Memory is owned by values.** Each `basic_json` value owns its content, and there is no manual memory management in
+  user code. The destructor does not recurse, so destroying a deeply nested value does not exhaust the stack.
+- **Bounded recursion.** The JSON parser and the binary readers keep their state in explicit stacks instead of
+  recursing per nesting level. Operations that walk a value, such as [`dump`](../api/basic_json/dump.md), copying,
+  comparison, hashing, and [`merge_patch`](../api/basic_json/merge_patch.md), recurse only up to a fixed depth and
+  continue with an explicit stack below it. Some operations, such as [`diff`](../api/basic_json/diff.md),
+  [`flatten`](../api/basic_json/flatten.md), and the binary writers, still recurse once per nesting level; work on them
+  is in progress. Applications that process untrusted input can limit its nesting depth with a
+  [parser callback](../features/parsing/parser_callbacks.md).
+- **Invariants are checked.** The class invariant (for instance, that the pointer for the stored type is never null) is
+  checked with runtime assertions throughout the test suite.
