Add the one-pass parser of json_view (internal)

Browse Source

The builder parses JSON text in one pass into the node index: strings and
numbers stay in the source (escaped strings are decoded into an arena),
integers are converted while their digits are in cache, and floats keep
their digit layout for a later conversion. It accepts exactly what
json::parse accepts, for every combination of comments and trailing commas,
with and without a terminating NUL, and with JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING.

Parse state lives in a local cursor whose address never escapes, so that it
stays in registers; out-of-line helpers (errors, regrowth, escapes,
comments) are members of the builder and get the positions they need. The
value dispatch is expanded once for array elements and once for member
values. Literals are compared with memcmp and words read in a fixed byte
order, so nothing depends on the platform's byte order. Error messages come
with the public classes.

Tests (unit-json_view_builder.cpp): accept/reject and values against
json::parse for handwritten, generated, and damaged documents under all
option combinations, from std::string and from exact-size buffers (no read
past the input under AddressSanitizer), deep nesting up to 100,000 levels,
NUL/BOM/whitespace cases, and the test-suite files.
