Fixing #5398 lets to_bjdata() proceed past the object it used to reject, which exposed a pre-existing, unrelated round-trip quirk to the fuzzer: a binary_t value serialized through the non-optimized ("$U#"-less) array encoding is parsed back as a plain array of numbers, since from_bjdata() has no way to tell "array of uint8 numbers" apart from "array of bytes" without that optimized header. Re-serializing that plain array then goes through the generic smallest-type writer, which - unrelated to this PR, and long predating it - prefers the 'i' (int8) marker over 'U' (uint8) for values that fit both, so the re-encoded bytes can differ from the original even though both decode to the same value. This is not introduced by the #5398 fix; the same divergence reproduces from a bare json::binary_t value with no _ArrayType_ annotation involved at all, on the commit immediately preceding it. A general fix would mean changing the shared UBJSON/BJData smallest-type selection that hundreds of existing tests pin to 'i' for small positive integers, which is out of scope and too risky for this PR. Update fuzzer-parse_bjdata.cpp's round-trip assertions to check that re-serializing is value-stable (from_bjdata(to_bjdata(j)) == j) rather than byte-exact, matching the guarantee BJData actually provides, and add a regression test in unit-bjdata.cpp using the exact OSS-Fuzz input that documents the behavior.
