Niels Lohmann ebfa914346 Take the JSON value by const reference in the array and tuple from_json paths ...

Review feedback on #5737 (gregmarr): once the no-op std::forward calls
are gone, the forwarding references have no purpose. from_json_fn
passes the value as const BasicJsonType&, so these functions were only
ever instantiated with a const lvalue anyway.

The std::array, std::pair and std::tuple overloads of from_json and
their helpers now take const BasicJsonType& and pass j on unchanged.
Because the deduced BasicJsonType is now the plain type, tuple_type and
the static_assert name const BasicJsonType& explicitly, so the
reference checks are unchanged: get<std::tuple<const std::string&>>()
still works, and get<std::tuple<std::string&>>() still fails the same
static_assert. from_json_tuple_get_impl keeps its forwarding reference,
since tuple_type calls it through std::declval.

Behavior, the public API and the ABI do not change. unit-conversions,
unit-constructor1, unit-udt, unit-udt_macro, unit-regression1/2/3,
unit-deserialization, unit-noexcept, unit-items, unit-allocator,
unit-custom-object-type, unit-ordered_json2 and
unit-brace-init-copy-semantics pass at C++11, C++17 and C++20 with
unchanged assertion counts. Ran make amalgamate.
