* Fix#3868: Remove operator!= to enable P2468R2 rewritten candidate synthesis
Under C++20 P2468R2, a hand-written operator!= suppresses the compiler's
rewritten-candidate synthesis for operator==, preventing heterogeneous
comparisons like `std::string s; json j; s == j;` from compiling.
Fix by removing the hand-written operator!=, allowing the compiler to
synthesize != as !(a==b) in all language modes (C++20 member functions
and pre-C++20 friend functions).
Behavior change: operator!= now returns !(a==b) unconditionally, including
for special values like NaN and discarded. This means:
- NaN != NaN now returns true (matches IEEE-754 semantics)
- discarded != x now returns true for any x (matches !(discarded == x))
This also fixes underlying defects in previously-working code:
- Restores direct == comparison for views vs json (reverts std::ranges::equal
workaround added in PR #3950 to dodge this bug)
- Re-enables std::string == json comparisons (uncomments check in
unit-constructor1.cpp)
Fixes: #3868, #3979
