Add macros NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT and ..._NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT (#3143)

* Added new macros NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT and NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT.

* Updated docs for NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT and NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT accordingly

* Rephrased docs for NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT and NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT

* Updated docs for NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT and NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT

* Renamed default_obj in to avoid name clashes

* Added test for serialization of default constructed object

* Add const to getters for macro tests

If you just want to serialize/deserialize some structs, the `to_json`/`from_json` functions can be a lot of boilerplate.
There are two macros to make your life easier as long as you (1) want to use a JSON object as serialization and (2) want to use the member variable names as object keys in that object:
There are four macros to make your life easier as long as you (1) want to use a JSON object as serialization and (2) want to use the member variable names as object keys in that object:
- `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE(name, member1, member2, ...)` is to be defined inside the namespace of the class/struct to create code for.
- `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE(name, member1, member2, ...)` is to be defined inside the class/struct to create code for. This macro can also access private members.
- `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE(name, member1, member2, ...)` is to be defined inside the namespace of the class/struct to create code for. It will throw an exception in `from_json()` due to a missing value in the JSON object.
- `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT(name, member1, member2, ...)` is to be defined inside the namespace of the class/struct to create code for. It will not throw an exception in `from_json()` due to a missing value in the JSON object, but fills in values from object which is default-constructed by the type.
- `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE(name, member1, member2, ...)` is to be defined inside the class/struct to create code for. This macro can also access private members. It will throw an exception in `from_json()` due to a missing value in the JSON object.

In both macros, the first parameter is the name of the class/struct, and all remaining parameters name the members.
In all macros, the first parameter is the name of the class/struct, and all remaining parameters name the members. You can read more docs about them starting from [here](macros.md#nlohmann_define_type_intrusivetype-member).
!!! note
At most 64 member variables can be passed to `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE` or `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE`.
At most 64 member variables can be passed to these macros.
??? example
The `to_json`/`from_json` functions for the `person` struct above can be created with:
```cpp
namespace ns {
NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_NON_INTRUSIVE(person, name, address, age)
}
```
Here is an example with private members, where `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE` is needed:

## `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE_WITH_DEFAULT(type, member...)`
This macro is similar to `NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE`. It will not throw an exception in `from_json()` due to a missing value in the JSON object, but can throw due to a mismatched type. In order to support that it requires that the type be default constructible.
