Merge branch 'develop' into docs/review-fixes

Conflicts:
- include/nlohmann/json.hpp: took develop's removal of the UDLs (moved to json_literals.hpp, which already has the corrected @sa links)
- single_include/nlohmann/json.hpp: regenerated with make amalgamate
- docs/mkdocs/docs/api/operator_literal_json.md, operator_literal_json_pointer.md: kept the PR's migration guide link and develop's json_literals.hpp/JSON_NO_AUTOMATIC_UDLS note
- docs/mkdocs/docs/api/basic_json/to_bson.md: both sides added out_of_range.415; kept develop's example message and both version history lines
- docs/docset/docSet.sql: added JSON_NO_AUTOMATIC_UDLS (new on develop), which the PR's check_structure.py requires

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/).

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.

+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
