Tests: skip the parse() allocation sweep with MSVC iterator debugging

With _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL > 0 (MSVC STL debug builds, clang-cl), containers
allocate inside noexcept functions, so a failing allocation terminates the
program: "test case CRASHED: Terminate handler called" in the sax_parse
subcase of #5985. The sweep test of #6000 has the same guard.

-    (a "remove" followed by an "add") may already have removed the value at its "from" location; see the second example

-# Reading and writing files
-
-The library has no functions that take a file name. It reads from and writes to streams, so files are handled with
-`#!cpp std::ifstream` and `#!cpp std::ofstream` (or a `#!cpp FILE*` when reading). This page collects the recipes for
-the common cases and the mistakes that show up again and again.
-
-## Reading a JSON file
-
-Pass the stream to [`parse`](../api/basic_json/parse.md) directly, and check that the file was opened:
-
-```cpp
-#include <fstream>
-#include <stdexcept>
-#include <string>
-#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
-
-using json = nlohmann::json;
-
-json read_json_file(const std::string& path)
-{
-    std::ifstream f(path);
-    if (!f.is_open())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot open " + path);
-    }
-    return json::parse(f);
-}
-```
-
-- **Check that the file is open.** A stream that failed to open looks like an empty input, so `parse` reports
-  [`parse_error.101`](../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error101) ("unexpected end of input") at line 1,
-  column 1 instead of saying that the file is missing. A relative path is resolved against the working directory of the
-  running program, which is often not the directory of the source file (see the
-  [FAQ](../home/faq.md#parsing-a-file-fails-with-unexpected-end-of-input)).
-- **Don't read the file into a string first.** Parsing from a `#!cpp std::ifstream` is only about 10 to 20 % slower
-  than reading the whole file into a string with one `read()` and parsing that, and it needs no memory for the copy (see
-  [input sources and performance](parsing/index.md#input-sources-and-performance)). The common way to read a file with
-  `#!cpp std::istreambuf_iterator<char>` is so slow that it takes about twice as long as parsing from the stream. Read
-  the file into a string only if you need the text itself, for example for an error message.
-- `parse` requires the file to hold exactly one JSON value. Files with one value per line are read with
-  [JSON Lines](parsing/json_lines.md); files too large for memory are covered in
-  [Large, streamed, and partial input](parsing/large_and_partial_input.md).
-
-## Writing a JSON file
-
-[`dump`](../api/basic_json/dump.md) the value into a string first, then write the string:
-
-```cpp
-void write_json_file(const std::string& path, const json& j)
-{
-    const std::string text = j.dump(4) + '\n';  // may throw: nothing is written yet
-
-    std::ofstream f(path, std::ios::binary);
-    if (!f.is_open())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot open " + path);
-    }
-    f << text;
-    f.close();
-    if (f.fail())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot write " + path);
-    }
-}
-```
-
-- **Serialize before opening the file.** Opening a `#!cpp std::ofstream` truncates the file. `dump` and
-  [`operator<<`](../api/operator_ltlt.md) throw [`type_error.316`](../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316)
-  when a string is not valid UTF-8 (see [handling invalid UTF-8](serialization.md#handling-invalid-utf-8)), and
-  `#!cpp f << std::setw(4) << j` may already have written part of the value when it throws. Serializing into a string
-  first leaves the old file untouched in that case.
-- **Check the stream after closing it.** A full disk or a missing permission sets the stream's error state; it does not
-  throw unless you enabled exceptions on the stream with `exceptions()`.
-- `std::ios::binary` writes the text as it is. Without it, Windows writes `\r\n` for every newline of a pretty-printed
-  value.
-
-## Replacing a file without corrupting it
-
-The library never writes a file itself, so this section is not about the library. It is general C++ advice for a
-problem users of the library keep running into.
-
-A program that crashes or is killed while it writes leaves a truncated file behind. To make sure readers see either the
-old or the new contents, write to a temporary file in the same directory and rename it over the original
-(C++17, `#!cpp <filesystem>`):
-
-```cpp
-#include <filesystem>
-
-void replace_json_file(const std::filesystem::path& path, const json& j)
-{
-    std::filesystem::path tmp = path;
-    tmp += ".tmp";  // use a unique name if several processes may write the file
-
-    write_json_file(tmp.string(), j);
-    std::filesystem::rename(tmp, path);  // replaces path
-}
-```
-
-The temporary file must be in the same directory (more precisely, on the same file system) as the target: a rename
-across file systems does not fall back to a copy, it fails and throws `#!cpp std::filesystem::filesystem_error`. On
-POSIX systems, the rename atomically replaces the file. Standard C++ has no way to flush a file to the disk (`fsync`),
-so this protects against a crashed program, but not necessarily against a power loss.
-
-## Binary formats
-
-The [binary formats](binary_formats/index.md) work the same way, with the streams opened in binary mode:
-
-```cpp
-// read
-std::ifstream in("data.cbor", std::ios::binary);
-json j = json::from_cbor(in);
-
-// write
-const std::vector<std::uint8_t> bytes = json::to_cbor(j);
-std::ofstream out("data.cbor", std::ios::binary);
-out.write(reinterpret_cast<const char*>(bytes.data()), static_cast<std::streamsize>(bytes.size()));
-```
-
-Without `std::ios::binary`, Windows turns the bytes `0x0D 0x0A` into `0x0A` and may stop at a byte `0x1A` while reading,
-and turns `0x0A` into `0x0D 0x0A` while writing, which corrupts the data.
