Niels Lohmann 795b11fbe8 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 b8d3a44dff 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 eaf52bd10b 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.

Niels Lohmann 8e3cdd047c Fix -Werror=unused-result on json::from_cbor() in the 408 regression test
from_cbor() is [[nodiscard]]; CHECK_THROWS_AS() otherwise discards its
result, which GCC flags under -Werror. Assign to a throwaway json, as
the rest of the suite already does for from_cbor()/from_msgpack().

Niels Lohmann 0af973b792 Drop a non-portable exact exception message check in the 408 test
The allow_exceptions=false regression test checked the exact message
text produced when allow_exceptions=true (the default). On platforms
where std::size_t is 32-bit (e.g. mingw x86, MSVC Win32 builds), a
declared CBOR length of 2^63 is intercepted earlier, by
get_cbor_container_size()'s own (pre-existing, already correct)
length-narrowing check, with different wording than this fix's
start_array()/start_object() size check -- same error code, same
"still throws when allow_exceptions=true" guarantee, different text.

CHECK_THROWS_AS already verifies the behavior this test cares about
(still throws json::out_of_range, unchanged); drop the exact-message
assertion since it isn't portable across size_t widths and doesn't
add coverage of this fix specifically.

Niels Lohmann da03c38644 Honor allow_exceptions=false for excessive array/object size (out_of_range.408)
The SAX DOM parsers' start_object()/start_array() threw out_of_range.408
directly via JSON_THROW when a binary format (CBOR/UBJSON/BJData) declared
a container size exceeding max_size(), bypassing the allow_exceptions flag
that every other malformed-input error path in these classes honors via
parse_error(). This meant that json::from_cbor(data, true, false) etc.
could still throw (or abort under JSON_NOEXCEPTION) instead of returning a
discarded value, contrary to the allow_exceptions=false contract.

Route all four call sites (two in json_sax_dom_parser, two in
json_sax_dom_callback_parser) through parse_error() instead, matching the
existing error-handling pattern used elsewhere in this file. Behavior is
unchanged when allow_exceptions is true (the default); the exception
message and type are identical.
