Tests: skip the parse() allocation sweep with MSVC iterator debugging

With _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL > 0 (MSVC STL debug builds, clang-cl), containers
allocate inside noexcept functions, so a failing allocation terminates the
program: "test case CRASHED: Terminate handler called" in the sax_parse
subcase of #5985. The sweep test of #6000 has the same guard.

 When fixing a bug, edit `unit-regression3.cpp` and add a section referencing the fixed issue.
 `unit-regression2.cpp` holds the older tests; the two files exist because a single one grew large enough for the
 MinGW linker to fail relocating it, so please keep adding to the smaller file rather than growing the larger one.
-Tests that call `sax_parse` go into `unit-sax_parse.cpp` rather than into a large test file: every call instantiates
-the parser and the binary reader that recover from errors, which grows a test file considerably.

-# Reading and writing files
-
-The library has no functions that take a file name. It reads from and writes to streams, so files are handled with
-`#!cpp std::ifstream` and `#!cpp std::ofstream` (or a `#!cpp FILE*` when reading). This page collects the recipes for
-the common cases and the mistakes that show up again and again.
-
-## Reading a JSON file
-
-Pass the stream to [`parse`](../api/basic_json/parse.md) directly, and check that the file was opened:
-
-```cpp
-#include <fstream>
-#include <stdexcept>
-#include <string>
-#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
-
-using json = nlohmann::json;
-
-json read_json_file(const std::string& path)
-{
-    std::ifstream f(path);
-    if (!f.is_open())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot open " + path);
-    }
-    return json::parse(f);
-}
-```
-
-- **Check that the file is open.** A stream that failed to open looks like an empty input, so `parse` reports
-  [`parse_error.101`](../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error101) ("unexpected end of input") at line 1,
-  column 1 instead of saying that the file is missing. A relative path is resolved against the working directory of the
-  running program, which is often not the directory of the source file (see the
-  [FAQ](../home/faq.md#parsing-a-file-fails-with-unexpected-end-of-input)).
-- **Don't read the file into a string first.** Parsing from a `#!cpp std::ifstream` is only about 10 to 20 % slower
-  than reading the whole file into a string with one `read()` and parsing that, and it needs no memory for the copy (see
-  [input sources and performance](parsing/index.md#input-sources-and-performance)). The common way to read a file with
-  `#!cpp std::istreambuf_iterator<char>` is so slow that it takes about twice as long as parsing from the stream. Read
-  the file into a string only if you need the text itself, for example for an error message. This advice is for
-  `#!cpp json::parse`. [`json_document`](json_view.md) reads a stream into a buffer that it owns anyway, so there is no
-  copy to save: reading the file into a `#!cpp std::string` yourself and passing that as an lvalue, which the document
-  borrows, was about 6 to 12 % faster than parsing from the stream, with the same single buffer.
-- `parse` requires the file to hold exactly one JSON value. Files with one value per line are read with
-  [JSON Lines](parsing/json_lines.md); files too large for memory are covered in
-  [Large, streamed, and partial input](parsing/large_and_partial_input.md).
-
-## Writing a JSON file
-
-[`dump`](../api/basic_json/dump.md) the value into a string first, then write the string:
-
-```cpp
-void write_json_file(const std::string& path, const json& j)
-{
-    const std::string text = j.dump(4) + '\n';  // may throw: nothing is written yet
-
-    std::ofstream f(path, std::ios::binary);
-    if (!f.is_open())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot open " + path);
-    }
-    f << text;
-    f.close();
-    if (f.fail())
-    {
-        throw std::runtime_error("cannot write " + path);
-    }
-}
-```
-
-- **Serialize before opening the file.** Opening a `#!cpp std::ofstream` truncates the file. `dump` and
-  [`operator<<`](../api/operator_ltlt.md) throw [`type_error.316`](../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptiontype_error316)
-  when a string is not valid UTF-8 (see [handling invalid UTF-8](serialization.md#handling-invalid-utf-8)), and
-  `#!cpp f << std::setw(4) << j` may already have written part of the value when it throws. Serializing into a string
-  first leaves the old file untouched in that case.
-- **Check the stream after closing it.** A full disk or a missing permission sets the stream's error state; it does not
-  throw unless you enabled exceptions on the stream with `exceptions()`.
-- `std::ios::binary` writes the text as it is. Without it, Windows writes `\r\n` for every newline of a pretty-printed
-  value.
-
-## Replacing a file without corrupting it
-
-The library never writes a file itself, so this section is not about the library. It is general C++ advice for a
-problem users of the library keep running into.
-
-A program that crashes or is killed while it writes leaves a truncated file behind. To make sure readers see either the
-old or the new contents, write to a temporary file in the same directory and rename it over the original
-(C++17, `#!cpp <filesystem>`):
-
-```cpp
-#include <filesystem>
-
-void replace_json_file(const std::filesystem::path& path, const json& j)
-{
-    std::filesystem::path tmp = path;
-    tmp += ".tmp";  // use a unique name if several processes may write the file
-
-    write_json_file(tmp.string(), j);
-    std::filesystem::rename(tmp, path);  // replaces path
-}
-```
-
-The temporary file must be in the same directory (more precisely, on the same file system) as the target: a rename
-across file systems does not fall back to a copy, it fails and throws `#!cpp std::filesystem::filesystem_error`. On
-POSIX systems, the rename atomically replaces the file. Standard C++ has no way to flush a file to the disk (`fsync`),
-so this protects against a crashed program, but not necessarily against a power loss.
-
-## Binary formats
-
-The [binary formats](binary_formats/index.md) work the same way, with the streams opened in binary mode:
-
-```cpp
-// read
-std::ifstream in("data.cbor", std::ios::binary);
-json j = json::from_cbor(in);
-
-// write
-const std::vector<std::uint8_t> bytes = json::to_cbor(j);
-std::ofstream out("data.cbor", std::ios::binary);
-out.write(reinterpret_cast<const char*>(bytes.data()), static_cast<std::streamsize>(bytes.size()));
-```
-
-Without `std::ios::binary`, Windows turns the bytes `0x0D 0x0A` into `0x0A` and may stop at a byte `0x1A` while reading,
-and turns `0x0A` into `0x0D 0x0A` while writing, which corrupts the data.

-# Error Recovery
-
-By default, parsing stops at the first error. With the [SAX interface](sax_interface.md), you can instead ask the
-parser to *recover*: to repair the error and continue, so that you get as much as possible out of malformed input, for
-instance a file that was cut off, JSON edited by hand, or the output of a language model.
-
-## Recovering from errors
-
-The SAX parser's [`parse_error`](../../api/json_sax/parse_error.md) function is called for every error. Its return value
-decides what happens next:
-
-- `#!cpp false` stops parsing. This is what the SAX parsers of the library do, so [`parse`](../../api/basic_json/parse.md)
-  and [`accept`](../../api/basic_json/accept.md) never recover.
-- `#!cpp true` repairs the error and continues parsing.
-
-When recovering, the SAX parser still receives well-formed events: every `start_object` or `start_array` is followed by
-the matching `end_object` or `end_array`, and every `key` is followed by exactly one value. A SAX parser that creates a
-JSON value, such as the one in the example below, therefore gets a complete value. Parsing always ends, and
-[`sax_parse`](../../api/basic_json/sax_parse.md) returns `#!cpp false` for input that is not valid JSON, even if every
-error was repaired. Each token is reported at most once, and the SAX parser can stop at any error by returning
-`#!cpp false`.
-
-!!! example
-
-    The example below derives a SAX parser from the library's parser for `json` values (`json_sax_dom_parser`),
-    and recovers from all errors.
-
-    ```cpp
-    --8<-- "examples/sax_parse__error_recovery.cpp"
-    ```
-    
-    Output:
-    
-    ```
-    --8<-- "examples/sax_parse__error_recovery.output"
-    ```
-
-## How errors are repaired
-
-Each error is repaired with the smallest local edit: a missing separator is inserted, a stray token is removed, what can
-be read of a broken string or number is kept, and a value that cannot be read at all becomes `#!json null`.

-escape, a lone surrogate, and ill-formed UTF-8 are each replaced by U+FFFD (REPLACEMENT CHARACTER), and control

-After any other error, the end of the item is unknown: the input ended, a byte is not a valid type marker, or a size
-cannot be right. Parsing then stops, and the value read so far is completed: a key that waits for its value gets
-`#!json null`, and all open arrays and objects are closed. This keeps everything before the error of an input that was
-cut off. The exception is BSON, which stores the size of every document: an element whose end is unknown gets
-`#!json null`, the rest of its document is skipped, and parsing continues after the document.

-## Limitations
-
-- A repair is a guess. For example, `#!json {"a" "b": 1}` could be meant as `#!json {"a": "b"}` or as
-  `#!json {"a": null, "b": 1}`; it is repaired to the former. Treat recovered values as a best effort, and check the
-  reported errors.
-- A closing bracket always closes the innermost array or object. If a bracket is missing rather than wrong, the
-  repair differs from the intention: `#!json {"a": {"b": [1, 2}, "c": 3}` is repaired to
-  `#!json {"a": {"b": [1, 2], "c": 3}}`, although `#!json {"a": {"b": [1, 2]}, "c": 3}` may have been meant.
-- Keys without quotes, and strings in single quotes, are not supported; such members are skipped.
-- In the binary formats, a member that is skipped because its key is not a string is lost, and so are the elements of a
-  BSON document after one whose end is unknown.
-- A number that is too large for `number_float_t` is passed as positive or negative infinity. The SAX parser's
-  `number_float` also gets the number's text, but a JSON value cannot store it, and
-  [`dump`](../../api/basic_json/dump.md) serializes infinity as `#!json null`.
-- When parsing is not strict (see [`sax_parse`](../../api/basic_json/sax_parse.md)), a repair may read parts of the
-  input after the value, for instance of the next value in a stream of concatenated values.

-The saving is small, and only GCC shows it: libstdc++'s `<format>` is an additional header that nothing else in the
-translation unit includes, so the macro removes it (and the headers it pulls in). With libc++ (Apple clang), other
-standard headers include `<format>` anyway, so the macro only removes the library's own formatter, and the difference is
-within the noise.
-
-The trade-off: the `std::formatter<basic_json>` specialization is removed, so `#!cpp std::format("{}", j)`,
-and `#!cpp std::format_to` with a JSON value no longer compile (in a test with both compilers on
-macOS, the error was that `std::formatter` must be specialized for the type). Use [`dump()`](../api/basic_json/dump.md),
-or the stream operators, instead.

-## Switch off ranges support

-With C++20 and a standard library that provides `<ranges>`, the library includes it to declare the
-[`items()`](../api/basic_json/items.md) proxy a *borrowed range*, and uses the `std::ranges` concepts and algorithms for

-
-- `items()` is no longer a borrowed range. On a temporary, `#!cpp std::ranges::begin(make_json().items())` no longer
-  compiles, and `std::ranges` algorithms such as `#!cpp std::ranges::find_if(make_json().items(), pred)` return
-  `std::ranges::dangling` instead of an iterator, so code that uses the result no longer compiles. Calling them on
-  `#!cpp j.items()` for a named `j` is not affected.
-- [`JSON_HAS_RANGE_VIEW_CONVERSION`](../api/macros/json_has_range_view_conversion.md) becomes `0`, so a JSON array can no
-  longer be constructed from a `std::ranges::view` such as the result of `std::views::filter`. The assignment
-  `#!cpp json j = v | std::views::filter(pred);` no longer compiles.
-- Parsing from an iterator pair loses the C++20 fast path for contiguous iterators that are not pointers (for
-  example those of `std::vector`) and falls back to byte-at-a-time scanning. The result is the same; parsing may be
-  slower (not measured here).

-      end of the input ends a string that lacks its closing quote.
-    - A number keeps its longest valid prefix, e.g. `1` for `1.` or `1e+`.
-    - A block comment that is not closed runs to the end of the input.
-    - Anything else is skipped.
-
-    The rest of an invalid token is skipped up to the next delimiter
