Lookups in objects are linear, as for ordered_json. Objects with 128
members or more now get a hash table after parsing (open addressing; the
first of duplicate keys is kept, as for the linear search), so that
operator[], at(), find(), contains(), count(), value(), and JSON pointers
take constant time on average in them; the idea of switching to a hash
table for large objects is Boost.JSON's. The parser notes such objects when
it closes them (out of line, so that the parse loop only has a call for
it), and the object node keeps the number of its table.
Looking up each key of an object with 10,000 members: 59.8 ms -> 0.16 ms.
Parsing (json_document::parse, best of 7, separate processes): most files
within 1%; canada +5%, mesh.pretty +3%, citm +3%.
Tests: objects with 127, 128, 129, and 10,000 members (escaped, empty,
and duplicate keys, missing keys, comparisons), nested large objects, and
documents reused with read().

- tables as std::array; the frames of the first 64 levels stay a C array
(not initialized on purpose, NOLINT)
- \u escapes are decoded with the library's hex_codepoint() instead of a
second table
- the parse failure is private, with an accessor; the special member
functions of the builder are all declared
- no nested conditional operators; explicit parentheses; a repeated
branch body merged; auto for casts
- the test's C arrays, fixed seed, and escaped literals are marked, as in
the other tests

Internal parts of the zero-copy view (#5295), under detail/view and not
included by json.hpp, so that users of json.hpp compile nothing of it:
- macro_scope.hpp/macro_unscope.hpp: the few macros the view needs, under
its own prefix (json.hpp undefines its own at its end); the throw macro
honors JSON_NOEXCEPTION and JSON_THROW_USER like JSON_THROW
- string_ref.hpp: std::string_view from C++17 on, else a small stand-in
- node.hpp: the 16-byte node of the index; its kinds are value_t values
(checked by a static_assert)
- document_data.hpp: the storage of a parsed document (node array, decode
arena, owned input)
- scan.hpp: string and digit scanning with unrolled checks at fixed offsets
(after yyjson) and the library's SWAR and UTF-8 checks, independent of the
byte order
