Assert on missing array indices in const operator[] and document the JSON pointer case

The const operator[] overloads are unchecked by design, and a missing key or index is undefined behavior. The key overload guards this with a runtime assertion, but the index overload did not, although the element access documentation says an assertion fires in both cases. The const JSON pointer overload inherits both through json_pointer::get_unchecked(), so a pointer to a missing array index read out of bounds even in debug builds, and its documentation promised out_of_range.404 for any pointer that cannot be resolved. Add JSON_ASSERT(idx < size()) to const operator[](size_type), which also covers the index leg of the const JSON pointer overload. Document the undefined behavior for the const JSON pointer overload in operator[].md and in the runtime assertions page. Release builds are unchanged. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>

-
-When defined to `1`, maps whose keys are enums (such as `std::map<E, T>` or `std::unordered_map<E, T>`) are stored as
-JSON objects, using the enum's own conversion for the keys. By default, they are stored as arrays of `[key, value]`
-pairs.
-
-## Default definition
-
-The default value is `0` (disabled — existing behavior is preserved).
-

-```
-
-## Notes
-
-!!! note "Background"
-
-    JSON object keys are strings, so a map is only stored as an object if its keys can be converted to a string type.
-    Enums are not, even if [`NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM`](nlohmann_json_serialize_enum.md) maps them to strings, so a
-    map with enum keys becomes an array of `[key, value]` pairs:
-
-    ```json
-    [["stopped", "aa"], ["completed", "bb"]]
-    ```
-
-    With this macro, the same map becomes an object
-    (see [#4378](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/4378)):
-
-    ```json
-    {"completed": "bb", "stopped": "aa"}
-    ```
-
-!!! note "Maps with non-unique keys"
-
-    Maps that allow duplicate keys, such as `std::multimap<E, T>` or `std::unordered_multimap<E, T>`, are not affected
-    by the macro and are still stored as arrays of `[key, value]` pairs, as an object cannot hold duplicate keys.
-
-!!! note "Reading"
-
-    Reading is not affected by the macro: a map with enum keys can always be read from both an array of pairs and an
-    object. For the latter, each key is converted to the enum with its `from_json` function, e.g., the one defined by
-    [`NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM`](nlohmann_json_serialize_enum.md). Data written without the macro can therefore
-    still be read after enabling it.
-
-!!! warning "Keys must serialize to distinct strings"
-
-    Each key is converted with the enum's `to_json` function. If a key is not converted to a string (for instance, an
-    enum without [`NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM`](nlohmann_json_serialize_enum.md), which is stored as an integer, or an
-    enumerator mapped to `nullptr`), [`type_error.302`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error302) is thrown.
-    If two keys are converted to the same string (for instance, because
-    [`NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM`](nlohmann_json_serialize_enum.md) maps an unlisted enumerator to the first entry),
-    [`type_error.318`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error318) is thrown. In both cases, the target value
-    is not changed.
-
-!!! warning "Opt-in only"
-
-    This macro must be defined **before** including `<nlohmann/json.hpp>`. Defining it after the include has no effect.
-
-!!! note "ABI compatibility"
-
-    The value of this macro is encoded in the [namespace](../../features/namespace.md) (tag `_ekmo`), resulting in
-    distinct symbol names. Translation units compiled with and without it can therefore be linked into the same program
-    without One Definition Rule (ODR) violations, but they cannot exchange instances of library types.
-
-## Examples
-
-??? example "Default behavior (macro not defined)"
-
-    Without the macro, a map with enum keys is stored as an array of pairs:
-
-    ```cpp
-    #include <map>
-    #include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
-
-    using json = nlohmann::json;
-
-    enum TaskState { TS_STOPPED, TS_RUNNING, TS_COMPLETED };
-
-    NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM(TaskState, {
-        {TS_STOPPED, "stopped"},
-        {TS_RUNNING, "running"},
-        {TS_COMPLETED, "completed"},
-    })
-
-    int main()
-    {
-        std::map<TaskState, std::string> m = {{TS_STOPPED, "aa"}, {TS_COMPLETED, "bb"}};
-
-        json j = m;
-        // j is [["stopped","aa"],["completed","bb"]]
-    }
-    ```
-
-??? example "Objects for enum-keyed maps (macro defined to 1)"
-
-    With the macro, the same map is stored as an object:
-
-    ```cpp
-    #define JSON_USE_OBJECTS_FOR_ENUM_KEYED_MAPS 1
-    #include <map>
-    #include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
-
-    using json = nlohmann::json;
-
-    enum TaskState { TS_STOPPED, TS_RUNNING, TS_COMPLETED };
-
-    NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM(TaskState, {
-        {TS_STOPPED, "stopped"},
-        {TS_RUNNING, "running"},
-        {TS_COMPLETED, "completed"},

-
-    int main()
-    {
-        std::map<TaskState, std::string> m = {{TS_STOPPED, "aa"}, {TS_COMPLETED, "bb"}};
