Fix false GCC -Warray-bounds error with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS at -O3 (#5744 )

* Re-amalgamate single_include after #5737 #5737 changed sources under include/ without regenerating single_include, so the single header on develop is out of date. This commit only runs make amalgamate. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Suppress GCC's false -Warray-bounds error in set_parents() with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS With JSON_DIAGNOSTICS, GCC 13 to 15 report a false -Warray-bounds error at -O3 when set_parents() is inlined right after a non-container value (e.g., a string) was created: the std::map access in the object branch is checked against the string allocation although m_type rules that branch out. GCC 15 fixed the pattern from #4819 but not this one. Suppress -Warray-bounds around set_parents() only, and add a regression test that is compiled with -O3 -Werror=array-bounds on GCC. Fixes #5742 Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the false -Warray-bounds error by setting the type after the value The pragma around set_parents() is no longer needed: the base branch (#5585) creates a value before setting its type. Before, the type of a new string was stored first, so GCC had to assume that operator new could change it again, kept the object branch of the inlined set_parents() alive, and checked it against the string's allocation. Rewriting set_parents() itself (if/else instead of switch) does not help. Verified with Docker GCC 12.5, 13, 14, 15.3 and 16.2: the regression test builds and passes without the pragma, and fails to build on develop.

Niels Lohmann	dd2dd45abd	Fix false GCC -Warray-bounds error with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS at -O3 (#5744 ) * Re-amalgamate single_include after #5737 #5737 changed sources under include/ without regenerating single_include, so the single header on develop is out of date. This commit only runs make amalgamate. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Suppress GCC's false -Warray-bounds error in set_parents() with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS With JSON_DIAGNOSTICS, GCC 13 to 15 report a false -Warray-bounds error at -O3 when set_parents() is inlined right after a non-container value (e.g., a string) was created: the std::map access in the object branch is checked against the string allocation although m_type rules that branch out. GCC 15 fixed the pattern from #4819 but not this one. Suppress -Warray-bounds around set_parents() only, and add a regression test that is compiled with -O3 -Werror=array-bounds on GCC. Fixes #5742 Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the false -Warray-bounds error by setting the type after the value The pragma around set_parents() is no longer needed: the base branch (#5585) creates a value before setting its type. Before, the type of a new string was stored first, so GCC had to assume that operator new could change it again, kept the object branch of the inlined set_parents() alive, and checked it against the string's allocation. Rewriting set_parents() itself (if/else instead of switch) does not help. Verified with Docker GCC 12.5, 13, 14, 15.3 and 16.2: the regression test builds and passes without the pragma, and fails to build on develop.

Each of them is now called with a failing allocation, and reverting any single hunk of the fix makes the test fail under ASan. binary_t&& is only reached by to_json for a binary container type other than std::vector<std::uint8_t>, so the test calls the constructor directly.

Niels Lohmann	2c108d0b56	Create a value before giving it its type Several functions set the type of a value before creating the string, array, object, or binary value it stands for. When that creation threw - std::bad_alloc from the allocator, say - the value was left behind with the new type but nothing behind it: - json::binary() returned no value, but its destructor asserted that a binary value has a binary array, aborting debug builds. - operator[], push_back, emplace_back, emplace, and update turned a null value into an array or object that did not exist; any later access dereferenced a null pointer. - The to_json conversions destroyed the old value first. A failed creation of the new one left a pointer to the destroyed old value, which was then used and freed again (heap-use-after-free). The value is now created first and the type set after it, and to_json destroys the old value only once the new one exists, so a failed allocation leaves the value unchanged.
