* Share the diagnostic-position setter of the DOM SAX parsers
json_sax_dom_parser and json_sax_dom_callback_parser each had a private
copy of handle_diagnostic_positions_for_json_value(), identical except
for comments. Move the body into one static member function,
detail::diagnostic_positions::set_from_lexer(value, lexer), which both
classes call with their lexer pointer. basic_json befriends the new
struct (only when JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS is enabled), as the position
members are private.
The discarded case is reached through the callback parser, so the
LCOV_EXCL markers that only the dom parser's copy had are gone. The
NOLINT on the unreachable default case loses the stray
"-warnings-as-errors", which is not a check name.
The start-position setup in start_object()/start_array() is left alone,
as #5706 is editing the callback parser's versions.
Behavior, the public API and the ABI are unchanged.

* Correct the parser comments on recursion and skip_to_state_evaluation
The class documentation called the parser a recursive descent parser,
but sax_parse_internal() is a loop that keeps the open containers on an
explicit stack. The comment at the end of an array and of an object
said the flag is set to false while the code below it sets it to true.

* Update the discard_number_values comments to the current number path
The comments explaining the accept() shortcut in convert_number() and
the member documentation still argued in terms of strtoull()/strtoll()
and errno, which #5283 replaced with convert_integer(), and pointed at
scan_number() instead of convert_number(). They also did not say that
scan_number_bulk_contiguous() converts integers itself, so the shortcut
is only reached for input without bulk access, with
JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS, or when the bulk scanner falls back.
Rewrite both comments to describe the digit-count check in front of
convert_integer(), keeping the 18-digit bound and the json_sax_acceptor
argument. The stale <cstdlib> comment is left for after #5616, which
edits that include block.

* List the UTF-8 validators instead of calling the DFA the only one
The documentation of decode() called the Hoehrmann DFA the single
source of truth for UTF-8 validation. It is used only by the serializer
and by is_valid_utf8() (CBOR/MessagePack/BSON/UBJSON/BJData text
strings). The lexer's scan_string() switch, validate_one_utf8() /
valid_utf8_prefix() (bulk string scan, BON8 bulk path and BON8 writer)
and the BON8 byte path in get_bon8_string() check the RFC 3629 ranges
on their own.
Replace the sentence with a list of the four validators, what each is
used for, and a note that they must accept the same sequences. Sharing
code between them was considered and dropped: it would save a few lines
in a validator that is entangled with BON8 pushback, and #5677 is
editing the BON8 byte path.

input_adapters.hpp included <memory> and <numeric> for the removed

std::numeric_limits without including <limits>. Also corrected
comments that no longer matched the code: input_stream_adapter does
not skip the input's BOM (the lexer's skip_bom() does), the
span_input_adapter comment named the no-longer-existing
input_buffer_adapter type, lexer::get_string() does not reset the
token, binary_reader's get_number() doc opened with /* instead of
/*! (so Doxygen skipped it) and omitted BON8 from its endianness
note, and the UBJSON-binary-types note did not mention that BJData
'B' arrays are read as binary.

* Deduplicate the strict-EOF/release_lookahead/error block in parser::parse()
json_sax_dom_callback_parser and json_sax_dom_parser branches of
parser::parse() ran the same ~25 lines after sax_parse_internal():
the strict-mode EOF check (raising parse_error.101 through the SAX
parser), release_lookahead() in non-strict mode, and mapping an
errored SAX parser to a discarded result. The two copies had already
drifted apart in formatting and in the second copy's "see above"
comment.
Add a private parse_dom(DomSax&, strict) member that runs this shared
sequence once and returns whether the SAX parser did not error; both
branches of parse() now only construct their DOM SAX parser, call
parse_dom(), and (for the callback parser) map a discarded top-level
value to null. sax_parse() is left untouched, since it only runs the
EOF check and release_lookahead() when sax_parse_internal() succeeded,
unlike parse(), which runs them unconditionally.
Behavior-preserving: same operations in the same order for both SAX
parser kinds. Verified with unit-class_parser (strict/non-strict,
callback and non-callback), unit-deserialization and
unit-disabled_exceptions (JSON_NOEXCEPTION), plus a clean
make amalgamate / make check-amalgamation diff.

* Share the code point to UTF-8 encoding between the wide-string helpers and the lexer
The 1/2/3/4-byte UTF-8 encoding ladder was written out by hand three
times: in wide_string_input_helper<..., 4>::fill_buffer() for a UTF-32
code point, in the UTF-16 helper for both a BMP code unit and a valid
surrogate pair, and in the lexer's \uXXXX/\uXXXX\uYYYY handling. The
copies had drifted: the UTF-32 helper masked the leading bits of each
byte (& 0x1Fu, & 0x0Fu, & 0x07u) where the others relied on the shift
alone, even though both give the same result for a code point that is
already known to be in range.
Add detail::encode_utf8(cp, out) in string_utils.hpp, a single encoder
that invokes a callable once per output byte, most significant byte
first. Use it in the three valid-code-point branches (UTF-32 code
points up to U+10FFFF, UTF-16 code units outside the surrogate range,
and valid UTF-16 surrogate pairs) and in the lexer's \u handling, where
out forwards to add(). The UTF-16 helper's deliberate pass-through of
malformed surrogate units and the UTF-32 helper's 0xFF sentinel for
code points above U+10FFFF are untouched, since neither reaches the new
helper.
Behavior-preserving: same bytes in the same order for every valid code
point, verified with unit-class_lexer, unit-class_parser,
unit-deserialization, unit-wstring and the non-test-data parts of
unit-unicode1..5 (ASan/UBSan, C++11/17/20), and an escape-heavy parse
microbenchmark that shows no change (about 73 ms either way, median of
3, 1M escape sequences). single_include/ regenerated with make

When a parser callback rejects an object's or array's start event,
json_sax_dom_callback_parser kept calling it for everything inside
that container anyway: nested keys, values, and the start/end events
of containers below it. This contradicts parser_callback_t's own
documentation, which promises that discarding a container at its
start event also hides its content from the callback.
The same code path also kept a full copy of every key inside such a
discarded container in key_stack until the whole parse finished,
because the early return for values that are not stored skipped the
matching pop. Filtering out a large subtree is the main reason to use
a callback, so this made peak memory during the parse scale with the
size of the very subtree the callback was trying to skip.
Fix start_object(), start_array(), and key() so that a container
whose own start event was discarded, or that is nested inside one, is
never handed to the callback, and no longer pushes onto the key
stacks. A container whose start event was accepted but whose key was
rejected still gets its content reported, as documented ("the
callback is still called for the associated value, but its return
value has no further effect"); only its own bookkeeping is skipped
since it will not be stored.
Fixes#5643.

* Honor allow_exceptions=false for excessive array/object size (out_of_range.408)
The SAX DOM parsers' start_object()/start_array() threw out_of_range.408
directly via JSON_THROW when a binary format (CBOR/UBJSON/BJData) declared
a container size exceeding max_size(), bypassing the allow_exceptions flag
that every other malformed-input error path in these classes honors via
parse_error(). This meant that json::from_cbor(data, true, false) etc.
could still throw (or abort under JSON_NOEXCEPTION) instead of returning a
discarded value, contrary to the allow_exceptions=false contract.
Route all four call sites (two in json_sax_dom_parser, two in
json_sax_dom_callback_parser) through parse_error() instead, matching the
existing error-handling pattern used elsewhere in this file. Behavior is
unchanged when allow_exceptions is true (the default); the exception
message and type are identical.

* Drop a non-portable exact exception message check in the 408 test
The allow_exceptions=false regression test checked the exact message
text produced when allow_exceptions=true (the default). On platforms
where std::size_t is 32-bit (e.g. mingw x86, MSVC Win32 builds), a
declared CBOR length of 2^63 is intercepted earlier, by
get_cbor_container_size()'s own (pre-existing, already correct)
length-narrowing check, with different wording than this fix's
start_array()/start_object() size check -- same error code, same
"still throws when allow_exceptions=true" guarantee, different text.
CHECK_THROWS_AS already verifies the behavior this test cares about
(still throws json::out_of_range, unchanged); drop the exact-message
assertion since it isn't portable across size_t widths and doesn't
add coverage of this fix specifically.

* Restore a duplicate key's prior value when the callback rejects its new value
json_sax_dom_callback_parser::key() unconditionally overwrote the object
slot for a key with a `discarded` placeholder as soon as the key was
accepted by the parser callback. For a duplicate key (legal JSON), this
destroyed the pre-existing value from an earlier occurrence of the same
key before the new value was even parsed. If the new value was then
rejected by the callback, remove_discarded_value() erased the member
entirely instead of leaving the original value in place, contradicting
the documented behavior that a discarded value behaves as if it was
never read.
Add a small stash of (slot pointer, previous value) pairs so that when
key() overwrites an existing member with the discarded placeholder, the
previous value can be restored later if the corresponding value (scalar,
object, or array) is rejected, instead of being erased. The stash entry
is dropped without restoring once the new value is definitively
accepted (in handle_value() for scalars, end_object()/end_array() for
containers), so a duplicate key whose new value is accepted still keeps
the last value as before. Non-duplicate keys are unaffected: rejecting
their value still removes the member entirely, since there is nothing
to restore.

with -Werror. The pre-existing parser_callback_t test lambdas in this

* Reserve capped array capacity for definite-length binary arrays
CBOR, MessagePack, and the optimized [$type#count UBJSON/BJData form all
pass an exact element count to sax->start_array(len), but
json_sax_dom_parser::start_array() (and the callback variant) only used
len for an overflow check against max_size() and never reserved the
underlying vector, so each element triggered a reallocation cascade via
emplace_back().
Reserve upfront, but cap the reservation at 16384 elements: max_size()
for a std::vector is far larger than any realistic input, so an
unbounded reserve(len) would let a crafted/truncated header (e.g. CBOR
0x9A + a huge uint32 count with no data) trigger a multi-gigabyte
allocation attempt instead of the normal graceful parse_error. With the
cap, a hostile length still fails fast with the existing parse_error,
while realistic arrays get a single up-front allocation.

* Make the huge-claimed-length DoS regression tests portable across size_t widths
On a platform where size_t is narrower than 64 bits (e.g. 32-bit mingw/msvc
x86), the previously-hardcoded huge test lengths either collide with that
platform's unknown_size() sentinel (CBOR/MessagePack, both using exactly
SIZE_MAX) or exceed the platform's smaller vector<json>::max_size()
(UBJSON/BJData's 0x7FFFFFFF), so the header is now rejected outright
(out_of_range.408) instead of being accepted and only found short of data
(parse_error.110). Both are safe, bounded rejections of the hostile input;
the property under test -- no attempt to allocate space for billions of
elements -- holds either way. Accept both outcomes instead of pinning the
64-bit-only exact result.
Also fixed an unrelated clang-tidy finding (google-readability-casting) on
the functional-style std::size_t(...) casts in the neighboring "arrays of
various sizes" section.

* Fix remaining CI failures in the huge-claimed-length DoS regression tests
- Apply the same google-readability-casting fix (std::size_t{N} instead
of std::size_t(N)) to the "arrays of various sizes" section in
unit-msgpack.cpp, unit-ubjson.cpp, and unit-bjdata.cpp; only
unit-cbor.cpp had been fixed previously, since clang-tidy's build
didn't get far enough to report the other three in the same pass.
- json_sax_dom_parser::start_array()'s max_size() check calls JSON_THROW
directly rather than going through sax->parse_error(), so unlike the
scanner's own "not enough data" parse_error it is not gated by
allow_exceptions=false. On a platform where a header's claimed count
exceeds max_size() (e.g. 32-bit, for UBJSON/BJData's 0x7FFFFFFF test
value), from_ubjson/from_bjdata(input, true, false) can therefore still
throw instead of returning a discarded value. Make that assertion
tolerant of either outcome, same as the main exception-catching check
above it.
- Guard all four "a huge claimed length..." SECTIONs with
#if !defined(JSON_NOEXCEPTION), matching this test suite's existing
convention for exception-dependent tests: under JSON_NOEXCEPTION,
JSON_THROW never produces a catchable C++ exception at all (it aborts
the process), so a section that relies on try/catch to distinguish
between two acceptable outcomes cannot be expressed under that build
configuration regardless of platform.

* Move the scanned string into the value instead of copying it
The SAX interface documents that the string handed to json_sax::string() may
be moved from, and the DOM handlers already move the one handed to binary().
string() did not, so every string value was copy-constructed out of the
lexer's token buffer, which then kept the buffer alive at its high-water mark
until the next token overwrote it.
Moving hands that buffer to the new value instead. The allocation count is
unchanged - the value needed one either way - but the copy is gone.
jeopardy 247.3 ms -> 240.9 ms (-2.6%)
citm_catalog 4.61 ms -> 4.48 ms (-2.8%)
40k 30-char strings 7.80 ms -> 7.64 ms (-2.1%)
Note this deliberately does not extend to the object key. Moving the key
hands the lexer's buffer - sized for the largest token seen so far - to a key
that is usually short, so the next value has to grow a fresh buffer. Measured,
that costs 11.9% on a document of many small keys with longer values.

* Spell out the move rationale at every handle_value(std::move) site
The comment explaining why the value is moved sat only on

at it with "see json_sax_dom_parser::string()". That reference cannot be
searched for - the function is declared as `bool string(string_t& val)`
inside the class, so the qualified name appears nowhere - and the two
binary() overloads, which have always moved, carried no explanation at all.
Put the same comment on all four sites and name json_sax, which is
greppable, instead of a member that is not.

When a parser callback rejects a value, the placeholder stored for it has to
be removed from its parent again. remove_discarded_value() found it by
scanning the parent from the beginning, so filtering a container cost one
scan per rejected member - quadratic in the number of members of a single
container.
A rejected value can only ever be the one most recently added to its parent:
the last element of an array, or the placeholder key() stored under the
current key in an object. Record that key alongside the existing
key_keep_stack, and for a container record it again alongside ref_stack so
end_object()/end_array() can find it in the parent. Removal is then O(1) for
an array and O(log n) for an object, and finding nothing there means nothing
was stored, so there is nothing to remove.
The key for a container is read before handle_value() may consume it, so it
is also correct when the callback rejects the container at its start event
and it never reaches its parent at all.
Discarding half the members of one object, before -> after:
members value rejected container rejected at start
16 000 392 ms -> 3.7 ms 803 ms -> 8.2 ms
64 000 6238 ms -> 14.6 ms 12651 ms -> 32.2 ms
128 000 25339 ms -> 30.6 ms
Results are unchanged: 48 000 randomized documents parsed under 12 different
filtering callbacks - covering duplicate keys, empty keys, rejected keys and
containers rejected at both their start and end events - produce byte
identical output before and after.

The diagnostic position of a string value was derived by subtracting the
parsed value's length from the end position. Escape sequences make the
source token longer than the value it parses to, so the reported start
position landed inside the string, one byte off per escape sequence:
input: {"a":"\n\n\n\n\n\n"}
start_pos() == 11, so the reported range covered n\n\n\n"
instead of the documented "\n\n\n\n\n\n"
This contradicts the documented behavior of start_pos(), which is the
position of the opening quote, and it also corrupted the "(bytes N-M)"
part of JSON_DIAGNOSTICS exception messages. Strings with multi-byte
UTF-8 but no escapes were unaffected, which is why this went unnoticed.
Record the offset of the token in the lexer when it starts scanning and
use that, instead of reconstructing it from the parsed value. Booleans,
null and numbers already reported correct positions and are unchanged.
The new lexer member and accessor are compiled only when
JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS is enabled, which is already part of the ABI
tag, so the default build is unaffected.
