Niels Lohmann 61b104606d Index the large objects of json_view
Lookups in objects are linear, as for ordered_json. Objects with 128
members or more now get a hash table after parsing (open addressing; the
first of duplicate keys is kept, as for the linear search), so that
operator[], at(), find(), contains(), count(), value(), and JSON pointers
take constant time on average in them; the idea of switching to a hash
table for large objects is Boost.JSON's. The parser notes such objects when
it closes them (out of line, so that the parse loop only has a call for
it), and the object node keeps the number of its table.

Looking up each key of an object with 10,000 members: 59.8 ms -> 0.16 ms.
Parsing (json_document::parse, best of 7, separate processes): most files
within 1%; canada +5%, mesh.pretty +3%, citm +3%.

Tests: objects with 127, 128, 129, and 10,000 members (escaped, empty,
and duplicate keys, missing keys, comparisons), nested large objects, and
documents reused with read().

// Hash indexes of large objects, so that a lookup does not compare thousands
// of keys (as Boost.JSON switches from a linear search to a hash table for
// large objects). An object with document_data::index_min_members members or
// more gets an open-addressing table after parsing; its node stores the
// number of the table (1-based) in `extra`. A slot holds the offset of a key
// node from its object node (0: empty). Of duplicate keys, the first is kept,
// as for the linear search.
