* docs: qualify the operator>> stream positioning guarantee
operator>>'s notes state that it leaves the stream positioned right
after the parsed value, so that concatenated JSON values can be read
back to back. That does not hold when the value is a number: a number
is only terminated by the character that follows it, and the lexer's
unget() is simulated (it rewinds only the lexer's own bookkeeping),
so that character stays consumed from the stream.
Document the actual behaviour: the guarantee holds for all value types
except numbers, which must be followed by whitespace. Also qualify the
cross-reference on the JSON Lines page, which repeated the unqualified
claim.
Documentation only; the behaviour itself is tracked in #5340.

* fix: restore the character that terminates a number (#5340)
operator>> is documented to leave the stream positioned right after the
parsed value, so that concatenated JSON values can be read back to back.
That did not hold for numbers: a number is only terminated by the
character following it, and lexer::scan_number() reads that character
and calls unget() -- which is simulated and rewinds only the lexer's own
bookkeeping. input_stream_adapter consumes via sbumpc() with no matching
sungetc(), so the terminating character stayed consumed and the next
extraction started one byte too late ('1true' left the stream at 'rue').
Propagating unget() to the adapter directly does not work: next_unget
makes the following get() replay the cached character, so the terminator
would be delivered twice. Instead, restore the still-pending character
once at the end of a non-strict parse, where the input is handed back to
the caller:
- input_stream_adapter gains unget_character() (sungetc()) and advertises
it via supports_unget, detected the same way as supports_seek.
- lexer::restore_pending_unget() turns a pending simulated unget of a
real (non-EOF) character into a real one and clears next_unget so the
character is not also replayed. It is a no-op for adapters that cannot
unget, and reports failure when sungetc() fails, in which case the
input is left as it was before.
- parser calls it on the three non-strict paths, i.e. for operator>> and
sax_parse(strict = false).
Strict parse()/accept() are unaffected: they require the input to end
after the value, so the character is consumed by the end-of-input check
anyway. Parse error messages and reported positions are unchanged.

* tests: fix CI failures in the #5340 test helpers
Four CI failures, all in the new test code:
- GCC (-Werror=useless-cast): drop the `json(...)` wrapper around
`json::parse(...)`, which already returns a `json`.
- GCC (-Werror=unused-result): assign the discarded `json::parse()`
result to a dummy, the idiom used elsewhere in the test suite, and
catch `json::parse_error&` for consistency.
- clang-tidy (google-default-arguments): remove the default argument
from the `pbackfail()` override; `sungetc()` supplies the base
declaration's default.
- MSVC (bad allocation): `no_putback_streambuf::underflow()` set a
one-character get area without advancing `m_pos`, so an implementation
whose `istream::get` peeks before it bumps re-read the same character
forever. Keep no get area at all: `underflow()` peeks, `uflow()`
consumes, and `sungetc()` still always lands in `pbackfail()`, which
is what the test needs.

* fix: leave the character that terminates a number in the input
Read the character following a number without consuming it, instead of
consuming it and putting it back. input_stream_adapter now peeks with
sgetc() and only steps over the character when the next one is requested
or when the adapter is destroyed, so releasing it cannot fail - no
putback position is required from the streambuf.

* refactor: split the strict and non-strict paths in parser

* Put the stream position fix behind JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION
Leaving the character that terminates a number in the stream is observable:
reading "1,2,3" with repeated operator>> works today only because the comma
after each number is swallowed, and std::getline after a number skips the
line break. Both break with the fix, so make it opt-in for 3.x, as suggested
by @gregmarr in the review.
- JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION (default 0) selects the peek-based
input_stream_adapter. Without it, the adapter is the consuming one from
develop and has no supports_lookahead, so lexer::release_lookahead() and
the parser's calls to it compile to nothing.
- The macro changes input_stream_adapter's layout and member functions, so
it gets the ABI tag _psp, after _bics. The ABI config tests, the natvis
generator, and nlohmann_json.natvis (regenerated) know the tag.
- The tests for the fix move to unit-precise-stream-position.cpp, which
defines the macro itself and runs in every build, and gain the two cases
above. unit-deserialization.cpp pins the default behavior instead.
- The docs describe the default behavior again and point to the new macro
page; version history says "added in 3.13.0, planned default in 4.0.0".

* docs: document that a NUL byte in the input is treated as end of input
A NUL byte anywhere in the input - trailing, or embedded ahead of more
otherwise well-formed JSON - is currently treated the same as genuine
end of input, so parsing silently stops there instead of raising the
parse_error.101 any other unexpected byte triggers. This mirrors the
NUL-terminated-C-string convention already used when no explicit input
length is given (json::parse(const char*) already stops at strlen()),
just applied uniformly rather than only when a length is genuinely
unavailable.
This behavior predates this change and is not being altered here -
changing it would be an observable, backwards-incompatible behavior
change for any caller that (knowingly or not) depends on it, which is
not something to do silently in a patch. Documenting the current,
verified behavior as a new FAQ entry instead, so it's an intentional
and discoverable part of the contract rather than a surprise.
Fixes#5530.

* Add JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING opt-in macro for issue #5530
A NUL byte anywhere in the input is currently treated the same as real
end of input, rather than raising parse_error.101 like any other
unexpected byte (documented in the previous commit's FAQ entry). A full
unconditional fix was tried in PR #5532 but rejected as too risky to
ship by default: any caller could depend on the current behavior, even
unknowingly (e.g. a zero-padded buffer). On PR #5534, gregmarr proposed
a compile-time opt-in flag instead, and the maintainer agreed, wanting
it available now and defaulting to the corrected behavior in 4.0.0.
This mirrors the existing JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS precedent as
closely as sensible:
- JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING defaults to 0 (off); the three lexer sites
that treat '\0' as EOF/comment-terminator are gated with
`#if !JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING` so the default-off behavior is
byte-for-byte identical to today's.
- input_adapters.hpp's `T (&array)[N]` overload additionally trims a
single trailing '\0' from a `char` array (e.g. a string literal like
`json::parse("123")`) when the macro is on, so that case keeps
working; every other element type (unsigned char, std::uint8_t, ...)
always keeps its full extent. This intentionally does *not* reuse the
existing strlen()-based pointer overload via SFINAE-excluding `char`
from the array overload, as originally sketched for this change: that
approach is ambiguous against the newer generic container overload
added since PR #5532, and even where it compiles, strlen()-scanning a
`char` array that is not NUL-terminated within its bounds reads past
the end of the array (confirmed with AddressSanitizer). Trimming only
a single trailing byte, without scanning, avoids both problems.
- Documented via docs/mkdocs/docs/api/macros/json_strict_nul_handling.md,
linked from the macros index/nav/features page, the FAQ entry, and
the parse/accept/operator>> reference pages.
- Tested in unit-class_parser.cpp and unit-deserialization.cpp, default
state unguarded and opt-in state guarded. Since the library itself
#undefs the macro at the end of json.hpp (as JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS
already does), a plain `#if defined(JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING)` guard
after the include never actually triggers; the tests instead capture
the command-line value into a test-local macro before including the
header. A few pre-existing fixtures elsewhere (std::array<uint8_t, N>
sized one larger than their literal, relying on value-initialization
to silently add a trailing zero byte) needed the same one-byte
adjustment to keep passing under the opt-in behavior.
Unlike the precedent, this adds a proper `JSON_StrictNulHandling` CMake
option (rather than a raw -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS injection) and wires its
ci_test_strict_nul_handling target into the ci_cmake_options job matrix
in .github/workflows/ubuntu.yml, so the opt-in build is actually
exercised in CI -- closing the one gap in the precedent's own CI setup
(ci_test_brace_init_copy_semantics is defined but never referenced by
any workflow, so it has never actually run).
