Niels LohmannandClaude Sonnet 5 bfe0f32d71 Fix std::terminate and null pointer access in input_stream_adapter (#5699)
Parsing from a std::istream crashed in two unusual but valid stream
states, both in input_stream_adapter:

- With eofbit in the stream's exceptions() mask, get_character() sets
  eofbit via is->clear(), which throws std::ios_base::failure. While
  that exception unwinds, ~input_stream_adapter() called clear() again
  to reset eofbit, which is still set and still in the exception mask,
  so it throws a second time out of the (implicitly noexcept)
  destructor and std::terminate() is called. The destructor now only
  calls clear() if a bit other than eofbit remains set, so the first
  exception can propagate normally.
- For an std::istream without a stream buffer (rdbuf() == nullptr,
  e.g. std::istream(nullptr)), the constructor stored the null
  pointer without checking it, and get_character() dereferenced it.
  input_adapter(std::istream&) now throws parse_error.101 for such a
  stream, the same as it already does for a null FILE* or char*.

Added regression tests to unit-deserialization.cpp and, for the
JSON_PRECISE_STREAM_POSITION variant of get_character(), to
unit-precise-stream-position.cpp; both crashed before this fix.
Documented the two exceptions in parse.md and operator_gtgt.md.

Fixes #5646.
