* 🐛 reject ill-formed UTF-8 in CBOR/MessagePack/BSON text strings at decode time (#5531)

from_cbor()/from_msgpack()/from_bson() copied the raw bytes of a decoded
text string into the resulting json value without any UTF-8 validation,
even though RFC 8949 §3.1 (CBOR) and the MessagePack/BSON specifications
all require text strings to be valid UTF-8. Malformed input only failed
later, if the value was dump()'d, with a type_error.316 - so the
allow_exceptions=false pattern used specifically to get a discarded
sentinel instead of an exception did not discard this category of
malformed input, unlike every other kind of malformed binary input this
library rejects at decode time (see #5529).

Fix this at the single choke point shared by BSON/CBOR/MessagePack/UBJSON
string reads, binary_reader::get_string(): validate the bytes with the
UTF-8 DFA right after they are read, and report failures the same way as
every other binary_reader error (parse_error.113), so allow_exceptions
and strict discarding behave consistently. get_binary()/binary blob reads
are untouched and still accept arbitrary bytes, since only text strings
are required to be UTF-8.

There were two independent implementations of a UTF-8 validator: the
lexer's streaming scanner, and the serializer's Hoehrmann DFA used by
dump_escaped_impl(). Rather than write a third, the serializer's decode()
function, its utf8d table and the UTF8_ACCEPT/UTF8_REJECT constants are
extracted into detail/string_utils.hpp (a low-level header already
included before both detail/input/ and detail/output/), alongside a new
is_valid_utf8() helper built on the same decode() step. serializer.hpp's
dump_escaped_impl() now calls the shared decode(), so there is exactly
one UTF-8 validator in the codebase; dump()'s exact type_error.316
messages and byte-index reporting are unchanged (see the added
regression-guard test in unit-serialization.cpp).

* ⚡ validate only newly read bytes of binary-format strings

get_string() validated the whole result after each call, but get_bytes()
appends to it and CBOR indefinite-length strings collect all chunks in
the same result, so every chunk re-validated everything read before it.
An input of many small chunks took quadratic time (80000 one-byte chunks,
160 KB of input, took about 7 seconds). Only the newly read bytes are
validated now, which also matches RFC 8949's requirement that every
chunk is valid UTF-8 on its own.

Sahil_Kamate b5378e8deb Fix CBOR tag handlers not recognizing tags 0-5 and 21-23 (#5331)
* Fix CBOR tag handlers not recognizing tags 0-5 and 21-23

The tagged-item switch in binary_reader::parse_cbor_internal() only handled
head bytes 0xC6-0xD4 and 0xD8-0xDB. Bytes 0xC0-0xC5 (tags 0-5: date/time,
epoch, bignum, decimal, bigfloat) and 0xD5-0xD7 (tags 21-23: base64url,
base64, base16 conversion hints) fell through to the default case and were
reported as invalid bytes, even under cbor_tag_handler_t::ignore and ::store,
despite being valid CBOR major-type-6 tags per RFC 8949.

Add the missing case labels so the full 0xC0-0xDB range is handled
uniformly. Extend the "Tagged values" test in unit-cbor.cpp to cover
0xC0-0xD7, and update the CBOR docs to state the corrected tag range.

Fixes #5315

* Fix stale CBOR tag docs and add store-mode binary-payload test

The "Incomplete mapping" warning still listed tags 0-5 (date/time,
bignum, decimal fraction, bigfloat) and 21-23 (expected conversions)
as unsupported, even though they now parse correctly under
cbor_tag_handler_t::ignore/store, same as 0xC6..0xD4/0xD8..0xDB.
Remove those five bullets and cross-reference the "Tagged items"
warning below, matching the equivalent docs fix landed independently
in PR #5367.

Also add a cbor_tag_handler_t::store test that wraps a binary
payload (not just a string) for every byte in 0xC0..0xD7, confirming
these tags are unwrapped the same way as 0xC6..0xD4 rather than
mistaken for the 0xD8..0xDB binary-subtype marker syntax, per review
feedback on #5331.

Niels Lohmann 521a084827 Documentation review (#5257)
* 📝 Fix documentation gaps for 3.13.0 release (todos 138-142)

- Todo 138: Add "Known issues" section to modules.md with compiler-specific troubleshooting (GCC redefinition, MSVC symbol export). Add pointer note to quality_assurance.md.
- Todo 139: Document CBOR/MessagePack half-precision float encoding for NaN/Infinity (0xF9/0xCA with exact byte sequences). Explain pre-3.13.0 double-precision bug mechanism without issue citations.
- Todo 140: Document CBOR negative-integer-overflow rejection (parse_error.112) for magnitudes exceeding int64_t range (already implemented in rev 1).
- Todo 141: Update version history in value.md and operator[].md with behavior-change details, removing issue citations per citation policy (prose is self-contained).
- Todo 142: Global sed replace of 3.12.x → 3.13.0 placeholder across all 20 documentation files.

Revision 2 incorporates feedback to reduce changelog-like issue citations. Only citations that add unique troubleshooting value are retained (#5103 for GCC workaround, #3970 for MSVC symbol export). "Known issues" section follows PR #5252's visual pattern (info admonition with bold-bullet format).

* 📝 Document integer type selection, type_name() invalid value, and std::optional get() fix

- number_handling.md: clarify that positive/negative integers select
  unsigned/signed storage based on the leading minus sign (todo 143).
- type_name.md: document the new "invalid" return value for corrupted
  JSON values (todo 145).
- get.md: note that get<std::optional<T>>() was unreachable in every
  configuration prior to 3.13.0 due to an internal macro-guard bug,
  unrelated to JSON_USE_IMPLICIT_CONVERSIONS's actual effect (todo 144).
