Niels Lohmann 6aec1a085f Report BON8 input that ends after a UTF-8 lead byte as truncated (#5677)
A lead byte (0xC2..0xF7) inside a string begins either another character
(if a continuation byte follows) or an integer (otherwise). When the input
ended right after the lead byte, the reader took the missing byte as "not
a continuation byte", ended the string before the lead byte, and treated
the lead byte as the start of the next value. With strict=false, a message
cut off there was therefore read as a shorter value: the 11 bytes of
"😀😀é" cut after 9 bytes gave "😀😀", and ["aé"] cut after 3 of its 5
bytes gave ["a"]. With strict=true, the input was rejected with a
misleading message ("expected end of input"), or, for a key, with
parse_error.112 instead of 110.

Either reading of the lead byte leaves the message incomplete: a string at
the end of a message must be terminated by 0xFF, so the lead byte cannot
belong to a following message. Report parse_error.110 (unexpected end of
input) for strings and keys, as the comment on get_bon8_string() already
requires and as the reference decoder (HikoGUI) does.
