Niels Lohmann 36c079149a Refuse to build the fuzzer drivers with NDEBUG (#5562)
The fuzzer drivers check their round trips with assert(), which NDEBUG
compiles away. The OSS-Fuzz build keeps assertions on today, but nothing
pins that: a build change that adds NDEBUG would silently turn every
round-trip check into a mere "does not crash" check. Each driver now
stops the build with an #error instead, and includes <cassert> itself
rather than relying on json.hpp.

This file implements a parser test suitable for fuzz testing. Given a byte
array data, it performs the following steps:
- j1 = from_bjdata(data)
- vec = to_bjdata(j1)
- j2 = from_bjdata(vec)
- assert(j1 == j2)
- vec2 = to_bjdata(j1, use_size = true, use_type = false)
- j3 = from_bjdata(vec2)
- assert(j1 == j3)
- vec3 = to_bjdata(j1, use_size = true, use_type = true)
- j4 = from_bjdata(vec3)
- assert(j1 == j4)
Re-serializing j2/j3/j4 with the same use_size/use_type settings is checked
for value-stability rather than byte-exact stability: from_bjdata(to_bjdata(j2))
must equal j2 (and likewise for j3, j4). Byte-exact stability does not hold in
general, because a BJData value can lose type fidelity across a round trip
(e.g. a binary_t value serialized without the optimized "$U#" array header is
parsed back as a plain array of numbers, see #5398 and the discussion on
PR #5494) - the numeric value is preserved, but the writer's smallest-type
selection for the now-plain numbers may legitimately pick a different, but
equally valid, single-byte type marker than the dedicated binary-data writer
would have. Both encodings are valid BJData and both decode to the same
value, so this is not treated as a round-trip failure here.
"Value-stable" is checked by comparing dump()s rather than with operator==
directly: a BJData/UBJSON payload can decode to a non-finite double (NaN or
+-Infinity), and IEEE 754 NaN is never equal to itself, so operator== would
report two structurally-identical trees as different whenever a NaN is
involved -- not a round-trip bug, just NaN's ordinary (non-)reflexivity.
dump() serializes any non-finite double the same deterministic way (as JSON
`null`, since JSON itself cannot represent NaN/Infinity), so comparing
dumps is stable under exactly the same values that break operator==.
The provided function `LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput` can be used in different fuzzer
drivers.
