bff45f1111 Derive generate_natvis.py's ABI tag list and version from abi_macros.hpp
generate_natvis.py hard-coded abi_tags = ['_diag', '_ldvcmp', '_dp',
'_bics', '_psp', '_snul'] and required --version on the command line.
The source of truth is include/nlohmann/detail/abi_macros.hpp: the
NLOHMANN_JSON_ABI_TAG_* defines, the argument order of
NLOHMANN_JSON_ABI_TAGS_CONCAT, and NLOHMANN_JSON_VERSION_MAJOR/MINOR/
PATCH. Nothing checked that the copies stayed in sync, and they have
drifted apart before: _dp was added in #4517 but missed here until
#5544, and 3.11.3 shipped json_abi_v3_11_2 namespaces (#4340).

Parse the tag list (in NLOHMANN_JSON_ABI_TAGS_CONCAT order) and the
version from abi_macros.hpp instead of hard-coding them. Make
--version optional (falling back to the parsed version) and default
the output directory to the repository root the script lives in.

Add a "natvis" Makefile target that runs the script, and extend
check-amalgamation to regenerate nlohmann_json.natvis and fail on a
diff, the same way it already does for the amalgamated headers and
BUILD.bazel. Wire the same regeneration into check_amalgamation.yml,
using the tool copy checked out from develop (as the workflow already
does for amalgamate.py) and installing jinja2 from
tools/generate_natvis/requirements.txt. Update the tool's README to
say it must be re-run after adding an ABI tag or bumping the version.

Verified: a run against develop produces no diff (with either the
default or an explicit --version 3.12.0); adding a dummy
NLOHMANN_JSON_ABI_TAG_* without a matching #define makes the script
fail loudly instead of silently omitting the tag; xmllint --noout
passes on the regenerated file; and running the script from a
directory other than the one being checked (simulating the workflow's
separate tool checkout) against this repository root also produces no
diff.

Overlaps #5600, which added _ekmo to the same hand-written abi_tags
line and regenerated the file.

d7af0f7d3b Fix stale install/usage instructions in the vendored amalgamate README
tools/amalgamate/README.md is the unmodified upstream text and no
longer matches how the tool is used here:

- It named a Bitbucket origin that no longer exists; CHANGES.md
  already tracks the GitHub mirror commit this copy is based on.
- It asked for Python 2.7, but CI and the Makefile run the script
  with python3.
- It told readers to run ./test.sh (not vendored) and install to
  /usr/local/bin; in this repository the tool runs through
  `make amalgamate`.
- Its usage synopsis showed `-v` taking no argument, but the script's
  own argparser requires `choices=["yes", "no"]`, so that form fails
  with "argument -v/--verbose: expected one argument". The Makefile
  calls it as `--verbose=yes`.
- It pointed at test/source.c.json and test/include.h.json, which are
  not vendored; the configs actually used are config_json.json and
  config_json_fwd.json.

Rewrote only the Installing and Using sections to match; left the
"Here be dragons" caveats and the rest of the vendored code untouched
to avoid diverging further from upstream.

Overlaps #5615, which edits amalgamate.py, this README and CHANGES.md.

ea9c4a2501 Document tools/macro_builder and tidy up serve_header.py
tools/macro_builder generates the NLOHMANN_JSON_EXPAND,
NLOHMANN_JSON_GET_MACRO and NLOHMANN_JSON_PASTE* macros in
macro_scope.hpp, but nothing referred to it. Add a README that explains
what it generates, how to run it and where the output goes, and which
dependent tables (NLOHMANN_JSON_DOUBLE_PASTE, NLOHMANN_JSON_TYPE_BODY)
are maintained by hand. Point to it from a comment above
NLOHMANN_JSON_EXPAND. The generator itself is unchanged; following the
README reproduces the header byte for byte.

In serve_header.py, drop the LGTM suppression (LGTM.com shut down in
2022), replace the """.""" placeholder docstrings with real ones, and
import socket and ssl at module level. DualStackServer.server_bind uses
socket, which was only imported under __main__; when the module was
imported instead, the NameError was swallowed and IPV6_V6ONLY was not
cleared.

The header change is a comment only; behavior, API and ABI are
unchanged.

1e44262091 Make JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING part of the ABI tag (#5560)
* Make JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING part of the ABI tag

JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING (#5534) changes the bodies of inline functions:
the lexer's handling of '\0' and input_adapter() for char arrays. So
translation units compiled with and without it define the same functions
differently, an ODR violation - the case the ABI tag exists for, as with
JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS (_bics). It now appends _snul to the inline
namespace. The macro is new in 3.13.0, so no existing namespace changes.

Its default moves to abi_macros.hpp, and it is only #undef'd without
JSON_TEST_KEEP_MACROS, as for the other ABI macros. The ABI config tests,
the namespace docs, the macro's docs and the Natvis file cover the new tag.

abbe52d6de Add JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION to leave the character that terminates a number in the stream (#5344)
* 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.

* docs: drop the whitespace-separator caveat from the parsing pages

The caveat added in #5343 describes the behavior this branch fixes: a

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

Folding the release_lookahead() call into the existing strict check left
the "in strict mode" comment on an else-if branch, and made the strict
condition in sax_parse() redundant with the branch it followed.

Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>

* 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".

2e91641de2 Test JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS for real, and fix one-element tuples under it (#5544)
* Test JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS for real, and fix one-element tuples under it

The opt-in JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS was never exercised by CI:

- Its only test, in unit-regression3.cpp, was guarded by
  `#if defined(JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS)` after the #include. The
  header #undefs the macro unconditionally in macro_unscope.hpp, so the
  guard was always false and the test compiled to nothing, whatever -D
  flag was passed.
- The ci_test_brace_init_copy_semantics target that passes the flag was
  not named by any workflow.

Move the test into its own translation unit that defines the macro before
including the header, as unit-diagnostics.cpp does for JSON_DIAGNOSTICS.
It now runs in every CI job and for every standard. Remove the unused
target: it ran the whole suite with the macro, and that suite deliberately
relies on default brace-init semantics in about 90 places
(e.g. `json({1})` meaning `[1]`), so it could never pass.

Running the whole suite with the macro did find one library bug:
to_json for std::tuple builds `j = { std::get<Idx>(t)... }`, so with copy
semantics a one-element tuple became its element. `json(std::tuple<int>{5})`
was `5` instead of `[5]`, and `get<std::tuple<int>>()` threw type_error.302
on the result. Under the macro, a one-element tuple now builds exactly what
the default deduction builds. Without the macro nothing changes.

The new tests also pin that the library's other conversions produce the
same values with and without the macro. The macro page now says that the
macro affects every single-element list (`json j = {1}` is `1`), and that
all translation units must agree on it, since it has no ABI tag.

* Make JSON_BRACE_INIT_COPY_SEMANTICS part of the ABI tag

The macro changes the body of the initializer-list constructor and adds a
to_json_tuple_impl overload, both with the same mangled names in either
mode, so mixing translation units silently picked one definition. Encode
it in the inline namespace as `_bics`, as JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON
does with `_ldvcmp`. The macro is new in the unreleased 3.13.0, so no
existing namespace name changes.

- Move the macro's default into abi_macros.hpp so json_fwd.hpp computes
  the same namespace, and keep it defined under JSON_TEST_KEEP_MACROS.
- Check the tag in the ABI config tests and in the unit test.
- List `_bics` (and the missing `_dp`) in the namespace docs and in the
  natvis generator; regenerate nlohmann_json.natvis.
- Replace the "define it consistently" warning with an ABI note.

Suggested by @gregmarr in the review of #5544.

* Fix the cppcheck, clang-tidy and legacy-comparison CI failures

- to_json_tuple_impl() moved the element in both branches of a ternary;
  only one runs, but cppcheck reported accessMoved. Use if/else.
- The ABI tag test looked for "json_abi_bics", which misses when another
  tag comes first, as in json_abi_ldvcmp_bics; look for "_bics".
- readability-qualified-auto in the items() test.

bc066c1838 Make serve_header.py listen on localhost and limit its CORS header (#5564)
Without a bind address in serve_header.yml, the server listened on all
interfaces, so any machine on the network could fetch the header and
trigger make runs in the working trees. It now listens on localhost
unless configured otherwise; bind: null restores the old behavior.

The header was also sent with Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, letting
any web page read it. CORS is only needed because Compiler Explorer
downloads #include <https://...> headers in the browser, so the header
now goes only to https://godbolt.org and https://compiler-explorer.com,
configurable with cors_origins.

0422165315 Handle 'moved' events in serve_header.py (#4997)
Fixes #3659

I was testing serve_header.py with my local development setup and noticed
that when I moved directories into or out of the monitored root, they
weren't being picked up properly. The script would only detect create and
delete events but not move operations.

This was happening because the on_any_event handler only checked for
'created' and 'deleted' events on directories. Move events have a
separate event type 'moved' that includes both the source and destination
paths.

The fix treats a move event like a combination of delete (for the source)
and create (for the destination) - we rescan to remove any trees that were
moved out, and add the destination directory to check for new trees that
were moved in.

This should make the development workflow smoother when reorganizing
project directories while the server is running.
