Niels Lohmann 78a0687147 Strong exception guarantee for operator[](json_pointer) (#5940)
* Keep the value unchanged when operator[] with a JSON pointer throws

The non-const operator[](json_pointer) is documented with strong exception
safety, but get_unchecked created intermediate values while walking the
pointer and kept them when a later reference token failed, e.g.
json j; j["/a/99999999999999999999999"_json_pointer] threw 404 and left
{"a":[]}; padding an existing array or appending with "-" behaved alike,
and so did std::length_error/std::bad_alloc from a huge index.

get_unchecked now only walks existing values up to the last reference
token. The last token's key insertion or array growth is strongly
exception safe by itself. Any other change goes through
get_unchecked_create, which records the one change it makes to an existing
value (null converted, key inserted, array grown) in a RAII guard and
reverts it if a later step throws; everything else it creates lies below
that change. The guard needs no try/catch, so JSON_NOEXCEPTION builds are
unaffected. Successful calls create the same values as before.

Docs: state the guarantee in the exceptions list and version history of
operator[], fix the complexity of the pointer overloads of operator[] and
at, and warn that padding arrays up to an untrusted index allocates memory
proportional to the index (operator[].md, untrusted_input.md).

* Make the strongly exception-safe pointer operator[] faster than before

The previous commit made get_unchecked strongly exception safe but slower
with GCC 16 when it creates values (up to +6 % instructions for appending
with "-"). This restructures it so that no benchmark row is slower than
before the strong guarantee, with GCC 16, Clang 22 and Apple Clang.

- get_unchecked walks existing values in one loop that inserts nothing.
  The last reference token is resolved in that walk: "-" appends with
  emplace_back(), an index grows the array with operator[], and a missing
  key is inserted with emplace_hint() at the position the walk's
  lower_bound() found, so the key is searched once.
- With std::less<string_t> or std::less<> as comparator, the walk checks
  the key at the lower bound for equality instead of equivalence, which is
  the same for these comparators and cheaper.
- get_unchecked_create (not inlined) handles all other changes. Its guard
  swaps a null value with a fresh null value instead of copying it and
  reverts the change in a non-inlined function, so a successful call pays
  one compare for it. As every null value converted afterwards is a fresh
  one, it is converted in place instead of assigning a new array or object.
- Keys are added to new objects with emplace(), which also replaces the
  basic_json::operator[] call for ordered_json.

* Fix rollback of pointer operator[] for unusual object and string types

Follow-up to the strong exception guarantee of the non-const
operator[](json_pointer):

- get_unchecked_create assumed that emplace() always inserts the key that
  the walk did not find. For object types whose lookup and emplace()
  disagree (e.g. a copied fifo_map), nothing was inserted, the rollback
  erased the existing member, and the walk continued with a value of the
  wrong type (assertion, type_error.305, or a crash). It now checks the
  result of emplace(), arms the rollback only if a key was inserted, and
  otherwise continues the walk with the member found, as basic_json's
  operator[] does: such pointers throw out_of_range.404 and leave the value
  unchanged, as before the strong guarantee.
- The rollback erased the inserted key by key, which converts string_t to
  object_t::key_type and may allocate inside a noexcept function
  (std::terminate on bad_alloc with custom key types). It now erases by the
  iterator emplace() returned, and shrinks a grown array with erase() at
  the end instead of resize(). The documentation states the remaining
  requirement for custom template parameters.
- Creating values no longer calls string_t::begin(), so the non-const
  operator[](json_pointer) compiles with string types that lack it (as the
  alternative string type of the tests).
- Correct the @throw lists of get_unchecked and get_unchecked_create.

* Address review comments on operator[](json_pointer) rollback

- undo() shrinks the array with resize() instead of erase()
- comments say what "will be" done in get_unchecked_create
- tests: avoid a clang-tidy performance-unnecessary-copy-initialization
  hit (unit-alt-string) and the word "access" in section names, which
  Flawfinder flags as race/access

Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>

* Let the pointer rollback guard call undo() unconditionally

The check in the destructor and JSON_HEDLEY_NEVER_INLINE on undo() made no
measurable difference: instruction counts of j[ptr] are identical with
GCC 13 -O3 and within 0.4 % with clang, timings are within noise.
