Niels Lohmann ffd4242dc2 Docs: fill documentation gaps found in user questions (#5907)
* Docs: fill documentation gaps found in user questions

Add pages on class-hierarchy/smart-pointer/variant/chrono recipes, working
without exceptions, and large, streamed and partial input. Extend the FAQ
(23 entries, Known bugs first), parse error documentation (empty-input
checklist, line/column, diagnostic positions), element access, conversions,
creating values, ADL troubleshooting, memory, and build/distribution notes.
Add 14 examples with generated output. Correct the statement that parse errors
cannot be recovered from with -fno-exceptions.

The topics come from recurring questions on Stack Overflow, Reddit, Hacker
News, YouTube, and the project's GitHub discussions and issues.

* docs: declare range-for lists in variables to keep astyle quiet

astyle reformats a braced init list placed directly in a range-for
header; declare the list first so check_amalgamation passes.
