Niels Lohmann 42f89e3130 Let to_json(std::optional<T>) propagate exceptions from T's to_json (#5684)
* Let to_json(std::optional<T>) propagate exceptions from T's to_json

The overload was marked noexcept even though its body assigns *opt to
the JSON value, which calls T's to_json (or allocates for std::string,
std::vector, or json). Any exception from there -- a user-defined
to_json reporting an error, or std::bad_alloc -- called std::terminate()
instead of propagating. The noexcept also made basic_json's converting
constructor noexcept(true) for std::optional<T>, so json j = opt; could
not report the error either.

Fixes #5642.

* Fix CI: make to_json(std::optional<T>) conditionally noexcept

GCC's -Wnoexcept (an error in ci_test_gcc) fired at to_json_fn's
noexcept(noexcept(to_json(j, val))): after dropping the unconditional
noexcept, to_json(std::optional<int>) had no exception specification
although GCC could prove its body cannot throw. It also made
json(std::optional<int>) lose its noexcept.

Declare the overload noexcept exactly when assigning the contained
value to the JSON value is (std::is_nothrow_assignable<BasicJsonType&,
const T&>), which is what the body does. std::optional<int> is noexcept
again; a T whose to_json may throw still propagates the exception.
Static assertions in the test check both cases.

The test's throwing to_json triggered -Wmissing-prototypes and
-Wmissing-noreturn (clang) and -Wmissing-declarations and
-Wsuggest-attribute=noreturn (GCC). Move the type and its to_json into
an anonymous namespace, mark the function [[noreturn]], and compile
them only without JSON_NOEXCEPTION, like the test that uses them.
