basic_json_view gains operator== and operator!= with other views and with
basic_json values. Two views are equal if the values parse() would
produce for them are equal by basic_json's operator==: numbers compare by
value across their types, and objects by their members, with duplicate
keys resolved as parse() resolves them (the last value, at the position of
the first key). Objects are compared in member order if the object type
keeps an order (ordered_json), by key otherwise, as basic_json does.
Discarded views compare as discarded basic_json values do, which follows
JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON. Nothing is materialized except
single numbers, and the walk is iterative.
Tests compare the results for pairs of 1,200 generated documents (also
written differently: sorted keys, canonical numbers) with those of
basic_json, for json and ordered_json, plus numbers, duplicate keys,
member order, discarded values, and 100,000 levels of nesting.

basic_json_view::dump(indent, indent_char, ensure_ascii, number_format)
writes the text of a value as ordered_json::parse(text).dump() writes it
for the same arguments: members in document order (all of them, should a
key occur more than once), strings escaped by the same rules and with the
library's scanning kernels, floats with the library's conversion, and
integers copied from the source, where they are canonical except "-0".
With number_format::source, numbers are copied as they appear in the
source ("1.50", "1E2", "-0", all digits of long integers). operator<<
takes the indentation from the stream width, as for basic_json.
The writer (detail/view/serializer.hpp) writes through a raw pointer into
a string sized from the source extent of the value, and walks the index
iteratively, so the nesting depth is limited by memory only.
Tests compare the output of 2,000 generated documents with
ordered_json::dump() for several indentations and ensure_ascii, strings
with every kind of escape, numbers (5,000 random doubles, float as
number_float_t), duplicate keys, 100,000 levels of nesting, and streams.
ViewDump joins the benchmarks.

get<T>() of arithmetic types is inlined down to the conversion, so that
its checks of the node kind merge with those of the caller, and reading
an integer needs no call. Traversing every value: citm_catalog -6%,
marine_ik -5%, numbers and twitter -3%, mesh -2.5%, canada -1% (and
more above the float conversion from the digit layout: citm_catalog
-14%, marine_ik -11%).

get_string() and number_token() return braced lists; the test compares
floats by their bit patterns instead of with memcmp, uses std::any_of, and
marks a fixed seed, a default member initializer (needed by GCC's
-Weffc++), and a string search.

basic_json_view gains get<T>(), get_to(), value() with keys and JSON
pointers, and operator[], at(), and contains() with JSON pointers, plus
two functions basic_json has no counterpart for:
- get_string(): the string without a copy (a string_view into the source,
or into the decoded strings for strings with escapes)
- number_token(): the text of a number as it appears in the source
get<T>() converts arithmetic types, strings (also string_view_t),
std::nullptr_t, std::vector, maps with string keys, and views directly;
floats are converted from the digit layout recorded by the parser with the
library's conversion chain, so the values are bit-identical to parse().
Other types, including user types with from_json(), go through
materialize().
The exceptions are those of basic_json, message included. Where const
basic_json has undefined behavior (a missing key or an index out of range
with operator[] and a JSON pointer), the result is a discarded view;
value() returns the default wherever basic_json catches out_of_range, and
contains() never throws. Array indices of JSON pointers follow
json_pointer's rules (parse_error.106/109, out_of_range.404/410).
Tests compare the conversions of 2,000 generated documents, 20,000 float
tokens (double and float, bit for bit), and every JSON pointer of 1,000
documents with basic_json, and the exceptions for malformed pointers.

basic_json_view gains the read-only access functions of basic_json:
operator[] and at() with keys and indices, front(), back(), find(),
contains(), count(), begin()/end(), items() (with structured bindings from
C++17 on), and type_name(). They throw the exceptions (ids and messages)
that the const functions of basic_json throw; where basic_json has
undefined behavior (operator[] with a missing key or an index out of
range, front()/back() of an empty container), the view returns a
discarded view or throws invalid_iterator.214.
Objects are iterated in document order, and all members are visited. With
duplicate keys, lookups find the first member, so that a lookup can stop
at the first match; parse() keeps the last value. Keys of up to 16 bytes
are compared with two overlapping loads instead of memcmp, and most keys
are rejected by their length alone, from the index.
The iterators and items live in detail/view/iterator.hpp, the lookups in
detail/view/lookup.hpp. Tests compare every element and member of 2,000
generated documents with ordered_json, keys of every length around the
load sizes, the exceptions against const basic_json, and the iterators.

The 4 GiB limit and the fallback for an input that parse() accepts but
the view rejects (a bug) are excluded from the coverage; shrink_to_fit()
of an empty document is tested.

- the input dispatch takes byte ranges by const reference and reads the
size once (which also settles a finding of the static analyzer); input
adapters are taken by value
- the classification of inputs keeps its nested conditional operators, a
constant expression of C++11 (NOLINT)
- the test's C arrays, fixed seed, and escaped literals are marked, as in
the other tests

The public classes of the zero-copy view (#5295), in the new header
<nlohmann/json_view.hpp>:
- basic_json_document<BasicJsonType>: parse (borrowing contiguous byte
inputs, owning rvalue strings, streams, and other inputs), parse_copy,
accept, read, root, is_discarded, source, owns_source, node_count,
memory_usage, shrink_to_fit
- basic_json_view<BasicJsonType>: type and the is_* queries, size, empty,
materialize (the value parse() would produce, built by the same SAX
handler), source_offset
- the aliases json_document, json_view, ordered_json_document, and
ordered_json_view
A parse error throws the exception basic_json::parse would throw for the
same input: the library parser is run on the failing input, so messages,
positions, and exception ids are the same. Inputs of 4 GiB or more are
rejected with out_of_range.416.
The single header single_include/nlohmann/json_view.hpp keeps including
json.hpp; make amalgamate, check-amalgamation, include.zip, and release
handle it.
