* Review and extend the documentation, and check it in CI
A review of all documentation pages found factual errors, dead links,
missing cross-references, and gaps in examples. This fixes them and adds
checks so the same problems are caught automatically.
Fixes:
- wrong signatures and version histories (operator!= C++20 member,
binary() subtype type, get<PointerType>(), JSON_NO_THREAD_LOCAL, ...)
- stale descriptions (number parsing since #5283, UBJSON table, SAX
example that no longer compiled, tsl::ordered_map advice)
- dead internal and external links; repology.org badges (the domain is
suspended) replaced by badges that query the registries directly
- deprecation notes link the migration guide; the guide itself fixed
Additions:
- "See also" sections, cross-references, 25 runnable examples, 12
Mermaid diagrams, new API pages for json_pointer::operator<=> and
byte_container_with_subtype::operator==/!=
- landing page, guides for untrusted input and performance
- "unreleased" badge after versions newer than the latest release
Checks:
- strict documentation build (broken links/anchors fail it); CI and
the publish workflow fetch the full history the build needs
- weekly external link check, Mermaid syntax check in CI
- check_structure.py: example titles, heading levels, alt texts,
header links, docset index coverage; its unused-example check works
again
- all examples produce the same output on every platform

* Keep the customer links that could not be fixed
A dead link on the customers page is still the evidence of where the
use of the library was documented. Keep the original URLs of the entries
without a working replacement (Marne, Cisco Webex Desk Camera, Philips
Hue, CyberArk) and exclude exactly these URLs from the link check.

* Correct the duplicate-key recipe's claim about SAX positions
The SAX interface's key() receives no position either; only parse_error()
does. Also note that the recipe does not report the path to the repeated
key (see discussion #5085).

* Correct documentation errors found while hunting for bugs
- patch/patch_inplace: list the JSON pointer errors parse_error.106-109
and out_of_range.402/404, and quote the actual parse_error.105 message.
- unflatten: list parse_error.106/107/108 and out_of_range.404.
- to_bson: list out_of_range.415 (binary subtype above 255) and note
that 412 and 415 are new in 3.13.0.
- to_string: state that string_t must be convertible to std::string, also
in the StringType requirements table.
- JSON Lines: a `while (input >> j)` loop also throws after the last value
for concatenated JSON values; show a loop that works for both.
- BON8: a string gets 0xFF only if nothing follows it in the message; a
string at the end of an array or object is ended by 0xFE.
- custom_string_type.hpp: add operator+=(char), which the "Always
required" list asks for (json_pointer::to_string, flatten, unflatten,
and diff did not compile), and an ADL int_to_string for diff and items.

* Cache the release headers with functools.lru_cache
Codacy (Pylint) flagged the mutable default argument that header() used
as its cache. functools.lru_cache keeps the same memoization without it.
The script's output is unchanged.

* Copy values before inserting an initializer list into an array
insert(pos, {...}) inserted wrong values when the initializer list
contained const references to elements of the array being inserted
into. json_ref stores only a pointer for a const lvalue, so the
initializer_list_t range passed straight to the array's range insert
aliased the array's own storage; std::vector::insert(pos, first, last)
may move or shift elements before copying from that range, so the
source elements were already stale by the time they were read
(different wrong results on libc++ and libstdc++).
Copy the referenced values into a temporary array_t first, then move
that temporary into place, so the source range never aliases the
array being modified.
Fixes#5656.

* Use the reserve_array helper in the initializer_list insert fix
The previous commit called array_t::reserve() directly on the
temporary buffer used to copy an ilist's values before inserting.
std::deque, a documented ArrayType (tests/src/unit-custom-array-type.cpp),
has no reserve(), so insert(pos, initializer_list) no longer compiled
for it. Use the existing detail::reserve_array() SFINAE helper (already
used by the SAX DOM parser) instead, which leaves array types without
reserve() untouched.
Added a regression check that deque_json::insert(pos, {...}) compiles
and handles the aliasing case from #5656.

The array-range insert() overload checked that pos fits the current
value and that first/last share the same owning value, but never
verified that value is itself an array. Passing iterators from an
object, a primitive, or null handed value-initialized (singular)
std::vector iterators straight to array_t::insert(), which is
undefined behavior. Add the missing is_array() check, mirroring the
equivalent check already present in the object-range insert()
overload.
