* Fix self-aliasing in json_pointer::operator/= and patch_inplace json_pointer::operator/=(const json_pointer&) passed iterators into its own token vector to insert() when a pointer was appended to itself (p /= p), which is undefined behavior; libstdc++ produced "/a/b//" for "/a/b". The pointer now appends a copy in that case. basic_json::patch_inplace iterated the patch while changing *this, so j.patch_inplace(j) read freed memory. It now applies a copy of the patch when the patch is the value itself. A patch stored inside the value remains undefined behavior and is documented as such; copying the patch unconditionally would double the time of a large patch.

Suppress performance-unnecessary-copy-initialization for the copy that is needed because *this is modified. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Detect a patch stored inside the patched value with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS patch_inplace applied a copy only when the patch was the value itself. With JSON_DIAGNOSTICS the parent pointers make it cheap to also detect a patch nested inside the value, so that case is handled the same way. Without diagnostics it stays documented undefined behavior.
