Niels Lohmann 21c8fb4318 Replace a container by a scalar in constant time once it is linked
Replacing an array or object that spans several nodes by a scalar looks
up its parent from the root (find_parent), which is linear in the size
of the document: setting every element of a 20,000 element array took
more than half a second. The parent only has to switch to links once;
afterward the extent of the replaced value no longer matters. Nodes that
an entry of a moved sequence links to are now marked (node_flags::linked),
and assign() skips the lookup for them.
