Niels Lohmann c8b380769c Index arrays without subtrees directly
operator[](idx), at(idx) and back() skipped the elements of an array one
after the other, whatever they were. In an array none of whose elements is
an array or object (numbers, strings, booleans, null) the elements are
adjacent nodes, which the array node's own sizes tell: its subtree has
exactly one node more than it has elements. Such an element is now the
node idx after the array node; any other array is walked as before.

Reading r[i] for every i of an array of 3000 integers:
  Apple M1: 28.8 M instructions, 3.1 ms -> 0.1 M instructions, 4 us
  Linux x86-64 Ir (whole run), GCC 13 / Clang 18: 84.1 M -> 3.1 M / 75.0 M -> 3.0 M
Arrays that contain arrays are unchanged.

Belongs to the PR "json_view: read-side speedups".
