Niels Lohmann 9862cf25f6 Test escaped object keys decoded through NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE from a json_view
A json_view or json_document decodes a macro-defined struct directly and looks
the members up by their decoded keys. Only plain keys were covered so far.

The new section decodes structs defined with NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE,
..._WITH_DEFAULT and ..._WITH_NAMES from documents whose keys contain escape
sequences, and compares the result with the conversion of the materialized
value. It also pins the difference for a duplicate key written once plain and
once escaped (the view takes the first member, the materialized value keeps
the last one), and that an escaped backslash is part of the decoded key.

Both results are only valid as long as the view — and, for a string with no escapes, the borrowed source text — is.
### `string_view` members
A struct whose member is a `#!cpp std::string_view` (C++17) can be decoded from a view with the
`NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_*` macros, and the member is not copied either: for a string without escape sequences it points
into the document's source text, and for a string with escape sequences into the document's buffer of decoded strings.
The member is valid as long as the document is alive and, for a document that
[borrows its source text](#ownership-and-lifetime) (as [`parse()`](../api/basic_json_document/parse.md) does for
an lvalue `#!cpp std::string`, a `#!cpp std::string_view`, or a C string), as long as that text is.
```cpp
struct record
{
std::string_view name;
int count;
NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE(record, name, count)
};
const std::string text = R"({"name": "widget", "count": 3})";
const json_document doc = json_document::parse(text); // borrows text
const record r = doc.root().get<record>(); // r.name points into text, valid while text and doc are
```
!!! warning "Decoding into a `string_view` from a `json` value dangles at once"
The same struct also compiles with `#!cpp json::parse(text).get<record>()`, but there `name` points into the
temporary `json` value, which is destroyed at the end of the statement. Use a named
[`json_document`](../api/json_document.md), as above, to decode such a struct.
## Writing generic code
A view's type names its `BasicJsonType` and its [`view_mode`](../api/view_mode.md):
