Niels Lohmann b8d53c0888 Derive the JSON_HEDLEY_* leak-check test from hedley.hpp at build time ...

tests/src/unit-no-macro-leak.cpp previously hardcoded a static list of
~151 #ifdef/#error checks, one per JSON_HEDLEY_* macro name known at the
time it was written. That list would silently go stale the next time
`make update_hedley` pulls in a vendor update that adds, removes, or
renames a macro, since nothing would force it to be regenerated.

Add cmake/scripts/gen_hedley_undef_check.cmake, which derives the full
list of JSON_HEDLEY_* macro names directly from
include/nlohmann/thirdparty/hedley/hedley.hpp:

- tests/CMakeLists.txt uses it (MODE=checks) to (re)generate
  hedley_undef_checks.inc at configure and build time, and wires the
  generating custom target as a dependency of the test-no-macro-leak_cpp*
  targets so it can never build against a stale copy. unit-no-macro-leak.cpp
  now just #include-s the generated file inside its TEST_CASE instead of
  carrying the checks itself.
- The Makefile's `update_hedley` target now delegates hedley_undef.hpp
  generation to the same script (MODE=undef, new `update_hedley_undef`
  target), so the vendored header, the generated #undef list, and the
  generated test checks are all derived from the same extraction logic and
  cannot drift apart.

This mirrors the approach taken independently in #5415 for the same
issue (#5408), credited there to a self-regenerating mechanism that
"can never drift again" -- ported into this branch instead of the
static list originally proposed here.

Verified with a local CMake configure + build + ctest, both against
include/ (JSON_MultipleHeaders=ON) and against the amalgamated
single_include/nlohmann/json.hpp (JSON_MultipleHeaders=OFF), and by
temporarily deleting a #undef line from hedley_undef.hpp to confirm the
generated test actually fails on a real leak.
