Add dump() and comparisons to json_view
Add basic_json_view::dump() and the comparison operators, and read floats from the parser's digit layout instead of rescanning the token. dump(indent, indent_char, ensure_ascii, number_format) writes a value the way ordered_json::parse(text).dump() writes it for the same arguments: members in document order, all of them should a key occur more than once; strings escaped by the same rules, using the library's scanning kernels; floats written with the library's to_chars conversion, so the output equals basic_json's byte for byte; integers copied from the source, where they are already canonical, except -0, which parse() reads as 0. There is no error_handler argument, because the view only holds valid UTF-8. number_format::source copies numbers exactly as they appear in the source (e.g. "1.50", "1E2", "-0"), which basic_json cannot provide. operator<< takes the indentation from the stream width, as for basic_json. The writer walks iteratively, so nesting depth is limited by memory only. operator== and operator!= compare two views, or a view and a basic_json value in either order, by the rules basic_json's operator== uses: numbers compare by value across their types, objects compare by their members with duplicate keys resolved as parse() resolves them, member order matters only where the object type keeps one, and discarded views compare as discarded basic_json values do, including under JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON. Nothing is materialized except single scalars. While parsing, the view now records where the integer digits, the fraction digits, and the exponent of a float token are, so floats and doubles with at most 19 digits are read from that layout with the library's decimal_to_float() instead of rescanning the token. Both round correctly, so the values are those of parse(). get<double>(), materialize(), dump(), and the comparisons all use it. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>
