* Fix discussion #4209: custom BinaryType direct assignment and extraction
When a custom BinaryType is configured (other than the default std::vector<uint8_t>),
users can now:
1. Assign values of that type directly to create binary values (not arrays)
2. Extract binary values back to that type with get<>()
3. Extract arrays to that type (for backward compatibility)
Implementation:
- Add is_compatible_binary_type trait to centralize SFINAE condition
- Update to_json to accept custom BinaryType values directly
- Update from_json to handle both binary and array inputs for custom BinaryType
- Add #include <vector> with IWYU comment to from_json.hpp
- Add comprehensive tests for assignment and array extraction
- Update binary_t documentation with example
This is purely additive and invisible to the default nlohmann::json alias, which
continues to treat std::vector<uint8_t> as arrays.

* Fix CI: missing include and const-correctness
- Add #include <vector> to type_traits.hpp for the new
is_compatible_binary_type trait's std::vector<std::uint8_t> reference
(caught by cpplint's include-what-you-use check)
- Mark test-local json variables const where never reassigned
(caught by clang-tidy's misc-const-correctness check)
