Niels Lohmann eb74fe2ab7 Fuzz the streaming input adapters against the contiguous one (#5827)
* Fuzz the streaming input adapters against the contiguous one

The fast paths for contiguous input (bulk string scanning, multi-byte
loads, lazy position tracking) are taken only when parsing from a
pointer range; streams and non-contiguous iterators still read byte by
byte. The fuzzer drivers parsed only contiguous input, so a difference
between the two would ship unnoticed.

check_input_adapters() in fuzzer_common.hpp reads the input through a
std::istringstream, a std::list iterator range, and (on POSIX) a FILE*
from fmemopen, and asserts the same value, or the same exception id,
message and byte position, as for the pointer range. All seven drivers
call it; the JSON driver checks parse and accept, each with and without
ignore_comments. It replaces the stream check of the BON8 driver.

This file implements a parser test suitable for fuzz testing. Given a byte
array data, it performs the following steps:
- j0 = from_cbor(data, allow_exceptions = false)
- j1 = from_cbor(data)
- assert(j0 is discarded if parsing j1 fails, and j0 == j1 otherwise)
- vec = to_cbor(j1)
- j2 = from_cbor(vec)
- assert(to_cbor(j2) == vec)
Finally, it reads the data from a stream, a non-contiguous iterator range, and
a FILE*, which read byte by byte, and checks that each gives the same value or
error (id, message, byte position) as the pointer range, which takes the bulk
fast paths (see check_input_adapters()).
The provided function `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput` can be used in different fuzzer
drivers.
