* docs: qualify the operator>> stream positioning guarantee
operator>>'s notes state that it leaves the stream positioned right
after the parsed value, so that concatenated JSON values can be read
back to back. That does not hold when the value is a number: a number
is only terminated by the character that follows it, and the lexer's
unget() is simulated (it rewinds only the lexer's own bookkeeping),
so that character stays consumed from the stream.
Document the actual behaviour: the guarantee holds for all value types
except numbers, which must be followed by whitespace. Also qualify the
cross-reference on the JSON Lines page, which repeated the unqualified
claim.
Documentation only; the behaviour itself is tracked in #5340.

* fix: restore the character that terminates a number (#5340)
operator>> is documented to leave the stream positioned right after the
parsed value, so that concatenated JSON values can be read back to back.
That did not hold for numbers: a number is only terminated by the
character following it, and lexer::scan_number() reads that character
and calls unget() -- which is simulated and rewinds only the lexer's own
bookkeeping. input_stream_adapter consumes via sbumpc() with no matching
sungetc(), so the terminating character stayed consumed and the next
extraction started one byte too late ('1true' left the stream at 'rue').
Propagating unget() to the adapter directly does not work: next_unget
makes the following get() replay the cached character, so the terminator
would be delivered twice. Instead, restore the still-pending character
once at the end of a non-strict parse, where the input is handed back to
the caller:
- input_stream_adapter gains unget_character() (sungetc()) and advertises
it via supports_unget, detected the same way as supports_seek.
- lexer::restore_pending_unget() turns a pending simulated unget of a
real (non-EOF) character into a real one and clears next_unget so the
character is not also replayed. It is a no-op for adapters that cannot
unget, and reports failure when sungetc() fails, in which case the
input is left as it was before.
- parser calls it on the three non-strict paths, i.e. for operator>> and
sax_parse(strict = false).
Strict parse()/accept() are unaffected: they require the input to end
after the value, so the character is consumed by the end-of-input check
anyway. Parse error messages and reported positions are unchanged.

* tests: fix CI failures in the #5340 test helpers
Four CI failures, all in the new test code:
- GCC (-Werror=useless-cast): drop the `json(...)` wrapper around
`json::parse(...)`, which already returns a `json`.
- GCC (-Werror=unused-result): assign the discarded `json::parse()`
result to a dummy, the idiom used elsewhere in the test suite, and
catch `json::parse_error&` for consistency.
- clang-tidy (google-default-arguments): remove the default argument
from the `pbackfail()` override; `sungetc()` supplies the base
declaration's default.
- MSVC (bad allocation): `no_putback_streambuf::underflow()` set a
one-character get area without advancing `m_pos`, so an implementation
whose `istream::get` peeks before it bumps re-read the same character
forever. Keep no get area at all: `underflow()` peeks, `uflow()`
consumes, and `sungetc()` still always lands in `pbackfail()`, which
is what the test needs.

* fix: leave the character that terminates a number in the input
Read the character following a number without consuming it, instead of
consuming it and putting it back. input_stream_adapter now peeks with
sgetc() and only steps over the character when the next one is requested
or when the adapter is destroyed, so releasing it cannot fail - no
putback position is required from the streambuf.

Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>
* docs: drop the whitespace-separator caveat from the parsing pages
The caveat added in #5343 describes the behavior this branch fixes: a
number no longer consumes the character that terminates it, so
concatenated values need no separator.

* refactor: split the strict and non-strict paths in parser
Folding the release_lookahead() call into the existing strict check left
the "in strict mode" comment on an else-if branch, and made the strict
condition in sax_parse() redundant with the branch it followed.

* Put the stream position fix behind JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION
Leaving the character that terminates a number in the stream is observable:
reading "1,2,3" with repeated operator>> works today only because the comma
after each number is swallowed, and std::getline after a number skips the
line break. Both break with the fix, so make it opt-in for 3.x, as suggested
by @gregmarr in the review.
- JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION (default 0) selects the peek-based
input_stream_adapter. Without it, the adapter is the consuming one from
develop and has no supports_lookahead, so lexer::release_lookahead() and
the parser's calls to it compile to nothing.
- The macro changes input_stream_adapter's layout and member functions, so
it gets the ABI tag _psp, after _bics. The ABI config tests, the natvis
generator, and nlohmann_json.natvis (regenerated) know the tag.
- The tests for the fix move to unit-precise-stream-position.cpp, which
defines the macro itself and runs in every build, and gain the two cases
above. unit-deserialization.cpp pins the default behavior instead.
- The docs describe the default behavior again and point to the new macro
page; version history says "added in 3.13.0, planned default in 4.0.0".

* Skip integer conversion in accept()/SAX validation when the value is unused
lexer::scan_number() always converted every numeric token with
strtoull()/strtoll() before returning, even though accept() (and any
consumer using json_sax_acceptor) immediately discards the converted
value. For value_unsigned/value_integer tokens whose digit count
already guarantees the value fits into 64 bits, the conversion cannot
change the accept/reject decision (such tokens are always finite and
unconditionally accepted), so scan_number() can skip strtoull()/
strtoll() entirely in that case when the caller signals it does not
need the value. Numbers with more digits keep using the exact,
unmodified conversion path, so overflow reclassification to
value_float (and the finiteness check on it) is unaffected.
parse() and value_float handling are completely unchanged.
