Fix clang-tidy misc-const-correctness in unit-udt_macro.cpp

The four zero-member ONLY_SERIALIZE test objects are only ever read
(via to_json), never mutated, so mark them const per clang-tidy.

-    This option only takes effect when building nlohmann/json from source as part of your own

-    It has **no effect** on a package that was already built and installed elsewhere (Homebrew,
