* Add basic_json::as_base_class and document name conflicts with custom base classes
Members of basic_json hide members of a custom base class with the same
name, and future releases may add members that hide ones accessible
today. Document this in json_base_class_t and add as_base_class() to
reach hidden members without spelling out the cast.
Also make json_base_class_t a public member type. It was documented
since 3.12.0, but declared private, so users could not name it.
Supersedes #3899.

* Add as_base_class to the docset search index
New public members get an entry in docs/docset/docSet.sql (as done for
to_bon8/from_bon8 in #2998). Without it, the Dash/Zeal docset built from
the documentation cannot find basic_json::as_base_class.

* Silence clang-tidy for the hidden type_name() in the base class test
ci_clang_tidy failed with readability-convert-member-functions-to-static
on base_class_with_hidden_members::type_name(). It must stay a
non-static member: the test shows that it is hidden by the non-static
basic_json::type_name() and reachable through as_base_class().
