Niels Lohmann ccb290facf Reduce the string_t and array_t members the library requires
Several members were required only because of how the library happened to
be written, not because the functionality needs them. Dropping them widens
the set of usable string and array types, and one of them was also a
performance problem.

string_t:

- c_str() is gone. Every call site already knew the length and passed it
  along, so data() is enough. The one place that did not, the diagnostics
  path in exceptions.hpp, now builds the token from data() and size(),
  which also stops it from truncating keys that contain a null byte.
- back() is gone; the serializer indexes the last character instead.
- find(str, pos), replace(), and substr() are gone. escape() and
  unescape() rebuilt the string with one replace() per escaped character,
  which moves the tail every time: escaping a string of n characters that
  all need escaping cost O(n^2). Both now scan with find_first_of() -- a
  member the pointer parser already required -- and append whole runs, so
  the common case is one search and one copy. Escaping 64000 tildes drops
  from 717 ms to 20 ms; a string with nothing to escape gets faster too
  (8.4 ms to 5.8 ms), because the scan is still a single memchr per pass.
  json_pointer::split() takes its reference tokens with the
  (const char*, size_type) constructor rather than substr().
- json_pointer::to_string() accumulates with concat<string_t> instead of
  letting concat default to std::string and converting afterwards, so
  streaming a json_pointer no longer requires string_t to be assignable
  from a std::string.

array_t:

- at(size_type) is gone. basic_json::at(size_type) checked the index by
  calling array_t::at() and translating std::out_of_range, which also
  required the array type to throw that exact exception. It now compares
  against size() and uses operator[]. The thrown exception, its message,
  and the behaviour under JSON_NOEXCEPTION are unchanged.

The BSON writer wrote the terminating null byte out of the string's own
buffer (size() + 1). It now writes the byte itself, so string_t::data()
need not be null-terminated for to_bson().

The tests pin the reduced API: alt_string loses the five dropped members
and gains coverage of the escaping paths, and a std::vector whose at() is
hidden is used as an ArrayType.
