* Add tests for uncovered code paths
Cover code the test suite did not reach, found from the Coveralls report
of develop and a local coverage run of HEAD:
- dump() of every kind of value below the bound of the recursive descent
(pretty-printed objects, binary values, discarded values, scalars), and
flushes of the escape and write buffers mid-string and mid-binary
- the iterative comparison: objects with different keys, containers that
are a prefix of each other, and elements that cannot be ordered, each
both at the top level and below the nesting bound
- SAX handlers that stop at any event, including the end of a nested
container, in the BSON, CBOR, MessagePack, UBJSON and BJData readers
- from_bson/cbor/msgpack/ubjson/bjdata returning a discarded value
through the iterator and pointer overloads
- JSON Patch, diff, merge_patch and update(..., true) on ordered_json
- smaller gaps: get_allocator(), to_ubjson/to_bjdata into a string,
value() with an unresolvable JSON pointer, integer/float comparison
below the integer range and with negative fractions, conversion to a
custom binary type, std::formatter::parse on a spec without '}',
unescape() of a lone '~', and the callback parser's start_array()

* Cover more paths that were thought unreachable
- parse_float_fast() declining malformed or inexact input, called
directly since the lexer only passes well-formed numbers to it
- a UTF-16 high surrogate followed by a unit above the low surrogates
- self-assignment of a const_iterator
- a truncated CBOR string read through non-contiguous iterators
- serializing a long double under the de_DE locale, which undoes the
locale's decimal point and thousands separator
- values read from a binary format carrying no diagnostic positions,
with and without a parser callback

* Fix the CI failures of the new coverage tests
- declare the self-assignment reference const (misc-const-correctness)
- expect the (/path) prefix that JSON_DIAGNOSTICS adds to the messages
of the failing ordered_json patch operations

* Expect the byte range JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS adds to the patch errors

* Build the expected dump of the nested-object test with +=
clang-tidy (performance-inefficient-string-concatenation) reported the
chain of operator+ calls that assembled the expected indented output.

* Compare the BJData and UBJSON test outputs byte by byte
Building a std::string from the byte vector converts each byte
implicitly, which -fsanitize=integer reports for bytes of 0x80 and
above (ci_test_clang_sanitizer).

The windows-11-arm runner image moved to windows-11-vs2026-arm64, which no
longer ships Visual Studio 2022, so the msvc-arm64 job failed at configure
time. Use the "Visual Studio 18 2026" generator like the msvc2026 job.
clang-tidy's modernize-raw-string-literal check flagged two string literals
in the nesting tests added by #5546 and #5547.

* Merge deeply nested objects without recursing per nesting level
merge_patch() and update(j, true) merged a nested object by calling
themselves on it, once per nesting level. A value nested deeply enough -
50,000 levels of objects on an 8 MiB stack - exhausted the call stack
and terminated the process, although parse() accepts such values without
complaint.
Bound the descent the same way dump() does. The recursion now carries
the nesting level, and once merge_depth_limit() (128) levels have been
entered, update_members_iteratively() and merge_patch_iteratively()
finish the merge on an explicit stack. They still merge a nested object
completely before the next member, and in the same order, so the results,
including the parents JSON_DIAGNOSTICS reports paths from, are unchanged.
Values nested less deeply than the bound run the same code as before, so
the common case does not pay for the stack: merging only on it cost
10-14% in a first version.
The public signatures are unchanged. The recursive worker behind
merge_patch() has its own name rather than being a private overload, so
that &basic_json::merge_patch stays unambiguous.
Tests check every depth up to 300 against recursive reference
implementations of both operations, check the diagnostic paths past the
bound, and merge objects nested 100,000 levels deep.
Fixes#5545 for update(j, true), and #5393 for merge_patch().

* Use the shared recursion limit in update() and merge_patch()
merge_depth_limit() is gone in favor of detail::recursion_depth_limit().
The two identical function-local frame structs become one member struct,
merge_frame, with a constructor, so both loops emplace_back() their
frames. merge_patch_iteratively() copies the frame it works on out of the
stack and changes it only through stack.back().

* Build the update()/merge_patch() diagnostics test values instead of parsing them
Parsed values carry byte positions under JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS, which
the expected messages do not include.
