json_view: source positions in materialize() with JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS (#5945)

* json_view: source positions in materialize() with JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS

With JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS, materialize() now gives every value the
start_pos()/end_pos() that basic_json::parse() would give it, so exceptions
about materialized values name the same bytes (#5864).

- json_sax_dom_parser takes the lexer type as a defaulted template
  parameter; materialize() passes position_source, which reports the
  positions it derives from the index. diagnostic_positions treats npos as
  "no position" and keeps ranges all-or-nothing.
- Strings with escapes keep the offset of their opening quote plus one in
  `next` (only with the macro); materialize() scans from there to the closing
  quote. The end of an array or object is found by scanning from the end of
  its last element over whitespace, comments and a trailing comma.
- In editable documents, values written by edits, arrays and objects whose
  elements changed, and containers whose last element has no position get
  none. Images keep the flag is_new, and load() checks that `next` of a
  string is within the text.

Nothing changes on the parse path without the macro. The view's own
exceptions still carry no byte range, so the tests that compare them with
those of materialized values skip it under the macro, as they skip the path
under JSON_DIAGNOSTICS.

* Address review: clearer position code and docs

- position_source gets clear(); set_scalar() returns early for new values,
  switches on node_kind, and uses no local copies; the one position_source
  per materialize() call is documented
- no npos + 1 for containers without a position; a comment on why the end
  of a container is reported as its closing bracket
- less duplication under #if in materialize() and the builder
- diagnostic_positions sets npos explicitly
- docs: positions of basic_json values after changes, positions in images
  depend on how the document was parsed, when next is set, and the cost of
  positions while parsing

* Share the comment scanners of the view builder with materialize()

skip_line_comment() and find_block_comment_end() in scan.hpp are used by
the builder's comment() and by position_source::container_end(), which
had its own copy.

* Address review: if/else for container positions, clearer next field

- the opening bracket of a container sets positions with an if/else instead
  of a ternary, and the frame takes its start from positions
- the closing bracket of a container is found in nested if/else; the parent's
  last_end is taken from positions, so it is npos whenever no range is set
- architecture.md: the next field reads "or 0 if it was not; all other
  values: 0" instead of "else 0; otherwise 0"
