Niels Lohmann 1b2b59549d Move the new binary-subtype regression test out of unit-regression2.cpp
unit-regression2.cpp is already at the edge of what the MinGW linker
can relocate; adding this test's ~26 lines tips test-regression2_cpp20
(clang, Windows) over into "relocation truncated to fit:
IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'" (see 8ce64b9c1 / b82717c8a for
the same failure mode). Split the test along format lines instead:
MessagePack assertions move to unit-msgpack.cpp, BSON assertions to
unit-bson.cpp. The CBOR round-trip guard is dropped as redundant --
unit-cbor.cpp's "Tagged values" section already round-trips subtypes
up to 8589934590, far past the 70000 checked here.

Niels Lohmann 93822367a9 Reject MessagePack/BSON binary subtypes that don't fit their wire format
Both formats store byte_container_with_subtype's subtype (a uint64_t)
in a single byte. The writers cast to std::int8_t/std::uint8_t without
a range check, so subtypes above 255 were silently truncated modulo
256 instead of raising an error. Throw out_of_range.413 instead when
the subtype exceeds the representable range of 0-255.

Niels Lohmann 7383479f90 Reject array insert(pos, first, last) iterators not pointing into an array
The array-range insert() overload checked that pos fits the current
value and that first/last share the same owning value, but never
verified that value is itself an array. Passing iterators from an
object, a primitive, or null handed value-initialized (singular)
std::vector iterators straight to array_t::insert(), which is
undefined behavior. Add the missing is_array() check, mirroring the
equivalent check already present in the object-range insert()
overload.

This exception was added in version 3.13.0. Before that, this situation could succeed with a corrupted result: for an array target, removing the "from" element before the "add" step shifted subsequent indices, so "path" silently re-resolved to a different element than intended.
### json.exception.out_of_range.415
MessagePack's ext type and BSON's binary subtype are each stored in a single byte. This exception is thrown when serializing a
[`byte_container_with_subtype`](../api/byte_container_with_subtype/index.md) whose subtype exceeds 255.
