/*!
@brief the JSON type enumeration

This enumeration collects the different JSON types. It is internally used to
distinguish the stored values, and the functions @ref basic_json::is_null(),
@ref basic_json::is_object(), @ref basic_json::is_array(),
@ref basic_json::is_string(), @ref basic_json::is_boolean(),
@ref basic_json::is_number() (with @ref basic_json::is_number_integer(),
@ref basic_json::is_number_unsigned(), and @ref basic_json::is_number_float()),
@ref basic_json::is_discarded(), @ref basic_json::is_primitive(), and
@ref basic_json::is_structured() rely on it.

@note There are three enumeration entries (number_integer, number_unsigned, and
number_float), because the library distinguishes these three types for numbers:
@ref basic_json::number_unsigned_t is used for unsigned integers,
@ref basic_json::number_integer_t is used for signed integers, and
@ref basic_json::number_float_t is used for floating-point numbers or to
approximate integers which do not fit in the limits of their respective type.

@sa @ref basic_json::basic_json(const value_t value_type) -- create a JSON
value with the default value for a given type

/*!
@brief comparison operator for JSON types

Returns an ordering that is similar to Python:
- order: null < boolean < number < object < array < string < binary
- furthermore, each type is not smaller than itself
- discarded values are not comparable
- binary is represented as a b"" string in python and directly comparable to a
  string; however, making a binary array directly comparable with a string would
  be surprising behavior in a JSON file.
