Niels Lohmann 0babaa1a4e Fix self-aliasing in json_pointer::operator/= and patch_inplace ...

json_pointer::operator/=(const json_pointer&) passed iterators into its
own token vector to insert() when a pointer was appended to itself
(p /= p), which is undefined behavior; libstdc++ produced "/a/b//" for
"/a/b". The pointer now appends a copy in that case.

basic_json::patch_inplace iterated the patch while changing *this, so
j.patch_inplace(j) read freed memory. It now applies a copy of the
patch when the patch is the value itself. A patch stored inside the
value remains undefined behavior and is documented as such; copying the
patch unconditionally would double the time of a large patch.
