Niels Lohmann 330fbead59 Document clang-tidy exclusions, drop unneeded ones, and clean up doc examples (#5909)
* Document clang-tidy exclusions and drop unneeded ones

Re-enable every excluded check in a run of clang-tidy 22 over all tests
and remove the seven that never fire (cert-err58-cpp,
clang-analyzer-webkit.NoUncountedMemberChecker,
cppcoreguidelines-virtual-class-destructor, google-readability-function-size,
hicpp-function-size, hicpp-no-assembler, readability-function-size).

Document the reason for every remaining exclusion at the top of the file.

Exclude in advance the checks that only exist in clang-tidy 23 and are
noise here (bugprone-signed-bitwise, *-explicit-constructor,
readability-trailing-comma, modernize-use-string-view), plus
modernize-use-integer-sign-comparison, which needs C++20 std::cmp_less
and flags deliberate casts.

* Fix clang-tidy findings in documentation examples and replace redundant aliases

Apply clang-tidy fixes to the documentation examples:
- performance-avoid-endl: std::endl -> '\n'
- readability-qualified-auto: auto -> auto* / const auto*
- performance-for-range-copy: copy -> const reference
- google-readability-casting: C-style cast -> static_cast

Replace redundant aliases (readability-redundant-qualified-alias) such as
"using json = nlohmann::json;" with "using nlohmann::json;" in the
documentation, README, examples, tests, and benchmarks. Aliases at class
scope and aliases of other types (with_base_class_t etc.) are kept.

No changes to the library or its public API. All changed examples were
compiled and run; their output matches the stored .output files (except
max_size and meta, which depend on the platform and compiler).

Niels Lohmann cc917d7123 docs: cross-reference json_view and json_document for 3.13.0 (#5892)
* docs: cross-reference json_view and json_document for 3.13.0

Document the new zero-copy document/view API across the docs: add a
"Documents and views" section to the basic_json API hub linking to all
specializations, point parsing/conversion/modifying pages to the view-based
alternatives, add document/view sections to feature pages, update the
landing page to mention json_view.hpp/json_literals.hpp, and cross-link
debugging/exceptions.

Also document wide-string inputs (and ill-formed UTF-16/32 rejection),
add parse/accept examples for wide strings, fix related doc gaps, and
align features/parsing and FAQ with the added support.

* docs: fix article before std::istream in FAQ

* docs: clarify document inputs, decoding, get<T>() and editing

Address review comments: say which inputs are borrowed and that a wide
string pointer is an extra input, which values are decoded during parsing,
that get<T>() reads only built-in types directly, all forms of set() and
that the document's insert() is array-only, and how to store wide strings.

* docs: integers are converted while parsing a document

Also say "They accept every input" in basic_json_document::parse.
