This adds direct support for `std::string_view` when available (C++17 and above). The current API can be used with `std::string_view` via the low-level two-pointer methods, but is not ergonomic. E.g., compare: ``` Json::Value node; std::string foo, bar, baz; std::string_view foo_sv, bar_sv, baz_sv; // Efficient & readable: node[foo][bar][baz]; // Less efficient, less readable: node[std::string(foo_sv)][std::string(bar_sv)][std::string(baz_sv)]; // Efficient, but a lot less readable: *node.demand(foo_sv.data(), foo_sv.data() + foo_sv.size()) ->demand(bar_sv.data(), bar_sv.data() + bar_sv.size()) ->demand(baz_sv.data(), baz_sv.data() + baz_sv.size()) // After this change, efficient & readable: node[foo_sv][bar_sv][baz_sv]; ``` * The constructor can take a `std::string_view` parameter. The existing overloads taking `const std::string&` and `const char*` are still necessary to support assignment from those types. * `operator[]`, `get()`, `isMember()` and `removeMember()` take a `std::string_view` parameter. This supersedes the overloads taking `const std::string&` and `const char*`. The overloads taking a pair of pointers (begin, end) are preserved for source compatibility. * `getString()` has an overload with a `std::string_view` output parameter. The one with a pair of pointers is preserved for source compatibility. Signed-off-by: Lev Kandel <lmakhlis@google.com> Co-authored-by: Jordan Bayles <bayles.jordan@gmail.com>
