Fix deprecated json_pointer/string operator== warning in value()

value(KeyType&&, default) is constrained on is_comparable_with_object_key,
which passes KeyType as a reference. is_comparable's dispatch on
is_json_pointer_of<A, B> only matches a json_pointer as a plain type or a
plain reference, so a const-qualified reference (as produced when KeyType
is deduced from a json_pointer argument) fell through to
is_comparable_no_json_pointer, which instantiates the deprecated
json_pointer/string comparison operators. This made ordered_json's
transparent comparator (and any transparent comparator on a custom string
type) warn under -Wdeprecated-declarations when calling
value(json_pointer, default), even though no such comparison is ever
performed. at() was already fixed for this in #5289, which does not use
is_comparable_with_object_key.

Strip references and cv-qualifiers with uncvref_t before the
is_json_pointer_of dispatch, so any reference-to-json_pointer is
recognized regardless of qualifiers.

Fixes #5664.
