26b7bb2ff4 Compare json_view with yyjson, simdjson, and Boost.JSON
tests/benchmarks/json_view/ holds the comparison with other libraries,
which is not built by CMake or run by CI:

- bench_view.cpp: parse, traverse, select, and dump of twitter,
  citm_catalog, canada, jeopardy, a single tweet, and a JSON-RPC request,
  with json_view, yyjson, simdjson (DOM and On-Demand), Boost.JSON, and
  json::parse; all engines must agree on every document before anything
  is timed, and run interleaved in every round
- bench_corpus.cpp: parse, traverse, and dump of any list of files
- compare.py: builds both against include/ with the libraries of the
  system (or pinned downloads), runs them, and writes the results with
  what is needed to reproduce them (date, commit, CPU, OS, compiler,
  flags, library versions) to results/<date>-<host>.md and .csv; only the
  Python 3 standard library is used
- README.md: how to run it, what is measured, and which features the
  engines have, so the numbers can be read correctly

Boost.JSON is optional (JSON_VIEW_BENCH_BOOST).

ca8c82fa68 Build, install, and check json_view.hpp
The new single header goes through the same checks and install steps as
json.hpp and json_fwd.hpp:

- cmake/ci.cmake: ci_test_amalgamation regenerates, formats, and compares
  json_view.hpp as well
- check_amalgamation.yml: the pull request check does the same; it runs
  develop's tools, so it needs config_json_view.json on develop first
- meson.build: installs single_include/nlohmann/json_view.hpp
- gen_bazel_build_file.cmake, BUILD.bazel: json_view.hpp joins the
  single-header target; the glob of the other target already covers the
  new headers
- labeler.yml: an "aspect: json_view" label for the header, its
  detail/view headers, tests, and documentation

The CMake install rules for include/ and single_include/, the REUSE
catch-all, and Package.swift cover the new files without changes.

1e101ecac1 Add BON8 support (#2998)
* Add BON8 support

Add to_bon8/from_bon8 and input_format_t::bon8 for BON8, a binary format
that uses the byte values that cannot begin a UTF-8 character as type
markers, so strings need no length prefix. It is the most compact of the
supported binary formats on the benchmark files.

The reader is non-recursive like the other binary readers. A string ends
at the first byte that cannot continue it, so the reader hands the one or
two bytes it reads past a string back to the value that follows. The
writer produces the canonical representation of the specification, except
for NFC normalization; its output is identical to that of the reference
implementation (HikoGUI) on all files of the test data.

The round-trip tests need the .bon8 files of json_test_data 3.2.0.

* Address review comments

- Reuse detail::validate_one_utf8 to check strings in to_bon8; the error
  now names the first byte of the invalid sequence.
- Document that to_bon8 leaves bytes in the output adapter on an
  exception, and that string_open is only an output of write_bon8_marker.
- Explain why the pushback buffer of the BON8 reader cannot overflow.

* Select the BON8 float prefix by type

get_bon8_float_prefix only depends on the type of its argument, so make
the type a template parameter instead of passing an unused value.

* Rename a test variable that Flawfinder mistakes for read()

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

* Fix the BON8 CI failures

- compare the float in write_bon8_float with number_float_t constants,
  so GCC does not warn about a float-to-double conversion
- mark check_bon8_utf8's context as used when exceptions are disabled
- choose the compact float prefix in a helper rather than with nested
  conditional operators (clang-tidy)
- use auto for the cast in the BON8 integer reader (clang-tidy)
- write the int32 minimum test values as long long literals (MSVC C4146)

* Read BON8 strings in bulk from contiguous input

- copy the valid UTF-8 of a string in one step when the input is
  contiguous (twitter.json is read in 1.68 instead of 2.52 ms,
  jeopardy.json in 196 instead of 297 ms, close to CBOR and MessagePack)
- share the new valid_utf8_prefix() with the writer's UTF-8 check, which
  now skips ASCII 8 bytes at a time
- let the fuzzer check that contiguous and stream input give the same
  value or error, and test both paths in the unit tests
- clarify that a second 0xFF after a string is an empty string

* Name the bulk scan flag after the input, not BON8

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

* Read BSON keys in bulk from contiguous input

BSON keys (and array indices) are C-style strings, which were read byte
by byte. For contiguous input they are now read up to their \x00-byte in
one step, using the same bulk_scan flag as BON8 strings: twitter.json is
read in 1.46 instead of 2.01 ms, citm_catalog.json in 2.93 instead of
3.33 ms, jeopardy.json in 182 instead of 207 ms. canada.json, whose keys
are almost all one-digit array indices, takes 2 % longer.

* Fix the BON8 CI failures of the bulk-read tests

- skip the contiguous-versus-stream tests of BON8 strings and BSON keys
  when exceptions are disabled: they catch the parse errors of invalid
  input, and without exceptions the library aborts instead
- use static_cast for the int64 test value (google-readability-casting)

* Move the explicit basic_json instantiation into its own test file

Linking test-regression3_cpp20 with clang and MinGW failed with
"relocation truncated to fit: IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'",
as test-regression2 did before #5511. The explicit instantiation of
basic_json<> for #4825 compiles every member function, including the
BON8 reader and writer, into that object, and it was already close to
the limit (2,226,104 bytes on develop, 2,234,960 with BON8; clang -O1,
C++20).

Give the instantiation a file of its own: unit-regression3 is now
1,594,736 bytes and unit-explicit_instantiation 1,095,064. The new file
mentions JSON_HAS_CPP_17 and JSON_HAS_CPP_20 so it keeps being built
for the C++17 standard the regression was about.

* Convert the bytes of the BON8 test strings explicitly

The str() helper constructed a std::string from a byte range, which
converts each unsigned char implicitly; -fsanitize=integer reports that
for bytes of 0x80 and above (ci_test_clang_sanitizer).

5f659c881a Let the labeler assign "aspect: binary formats", "python" and more "CI" (#5557)
- "aspect: binary formats" for changes to the binary reader or writer,
  their tests, fuzzers and docs, or with a binary format in the title;
- "python" for Python sources and pip requirements files, matching the
  label Dependabot sets on its pip updates, so it is never removed there;
- "CI" also for changes to the Dependabot and labeler configurations.
