release 4.6.4

* add get_int32() and get_uint32() to the On Demand API

Add convenience methods that call get_int64()/get_uint64() and
range-check the result, returning NUMBER_OUT_OF_RANGE on overflow.

Added to value, document, document_reference, and their
simdjson_result wrappers.

Closes #1890

* fix document_reference streaming for get_int32/get_uint32

The document_reference getters delegated to document::get_int32/get_uint32
which call get_root_int64/get_root_uint64 with allow_trailing_content=true,
rejecting the next document in a stream as trailing content.

Call get_root_value_iterator().get_root_int64/get_root_uint64(false) directly
to allow trailing content, matching get_int64/get_uint64.

Add streaming tests for both getters.

* add get_int32/get_uint32 to basics.md

* add get_int32/get_uint32 to wrong-type error tests

* add get<uint32_t>/get<int32_t> template specializations

Wire the 32-bit getters into the generic get<T>() and get(T&)
dispatch so that doc.get<uint32_t>() compiles on C++11/14/17
without requiring the C++20 concepts path in std_deserialize.h.

 We recommend that you run your tests using different optimization levels. In particular, we recommend your run tests with the simdjson library and you code compiled in debug mode. The simdjson then sets the SIMDJSON_DEVELOPMENT_CHECKS macro to 1, and this triggers additional checks on your code and on the internals of the library. If possible, we recommend that you run tests with sanitizers (e.g., see [No more leaks with sanitize flags in gcc and clang](https://lemire.me/blog/2016/04/20/no-more-leaks-with-sanitize-flags-in-gcc-and-clang/)).  You can compile the library with sanitizers for debugging purposes (e.g., set SIMDJSON_SANITIZE to ON using CMake), but you should also turn on sanitizers on your own code. You may also use tools like valgrind or the commercial equivalent.
 
+Mixing debug and release simdjson code is unsafe: you either build all your code using simdjson in
+release mode or all of it in debug mode.

 * We do not support unreleased or experimental compilers. If you encounter an issue with a
 pre-release version of a compiler, do not report it as a bug to simdjson. However, we always
 invite contributions either in the form an analysis or of a code contribution.
+* Vendors (e.g., Apple and Microsoft) stop supporting old systems. Once a compiler system is no longer supported by its vendor, we no longer support it. We will gladly accept code contributions, but we do not consider it a *bug* if you have issues with an obsolete compiler systems. This policy extends to obsolete standard libraries, linkers and other build tools. Please do not report it as an issue. If you cannot resolve the issue yourself, we encourage you to reach out to the vendor for legacy support.
 
 Under Windows, we support Visual Studio (both with LLVM and without). We do not support MinGW and other alternate compiler systems. Windows users should be aware that there [is a long-running bug with GCC under Windows](https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54412).

+# AI Usage Policy
+
+Contributors can use whatever tools they would like to
+craft their contributions, but there must be a **human in the loop**.
+**Contributors must read and review all LLM-generated code or text before they
+ask other project members to review it.** The contributor is always the author
+and is fully accountable for their contributions. Contributors should be
+sufficiently confident that the contribution is high enough quality that asking
+for a review is a good use of scarce maintainer time, and they should be **able
+to answer questions about their work** during review.
+
+We expect that new contributors will be less confident in their contributions,
+and our guidance to them is to **start with small contributions** that they can
+fully understand to build confidence. We aspire to be a welcoming community
+that helps new contributors grow their expertise, but learning involves taking
+small steps, getting feedback, and iterating. Passing maintainer feedback to an
+LLM doesn't help anyone grow, and does not sustain our community.
+
+This policy includes, but is not limited to, the following kinds of
+contributions:
+
+- Code, usually in the form of a pull request
+- Issues or security vulnerabilities
+- Comments and feedback on pull requests
+
+## Extractive Contributions
+
+The reason for our "human-in-the-loop" contribution policy is that processing
+patches, PRs, RFCs, and comments is not free -- it takes a lot of
+maintainer time and energy to review those contributions! Sending the
+unreviewed output of an LLM to open source project maintainers *extracts* work
+from them in the form of design and code review, so we call this kind of
+contribution an "extractive contribution".
+
+## Transparency
+
+For contributions involving significant AI assistance, we encourage you to disclose
+its use and explain your process. If a submission appears to rely heavily on AI
+without disclosure, we may doubt that the **human-in-the-loop** requirement has
+been met. Please show awareness of your use of AI.
+
+## Copyright
+
+Artificial intelligence systems raise many questions around copyright that have
+yet to be answered. Our policy on AI tools is similar to our copyright policy:
+Contributors are responsible for ensuring that they have the right to
+contribute code under the terms of our license, typically meaning that either
+they, their employer, or their collaborators hold the copyright. Using AI tools
+to regenerate copyrighted material does not remove the copyright, and
+contributors are responsible for ensuring that such material does not appear in
+their contributions. Contributions found to violate this policy will be removed
+just like any other offending contribution.

 Directory Structure and Source
 ------------------------------
 
+Before diving into the directory structure, here are key concepts used in the codebase:
+
+- **Amalgamated File**: A file that is conditionally included in the amalgamation process. These are wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` blocks and are included based on the target implementation (e.g., ARM64, x86). They include implementation-specific files (e.g., `arm64.h`) and generic files (e.g., under `generic/`). Amalgamated files have associated dependency files (`dependencies.h`) to track includes.
+
+- **Amalgamator File**: A file that orchestrates the inclusion of amalgamated files. Examples: `arm64.h`, `arm64/implementation.h`, `generic/amalgamated.h`. These are not themselves amalgamated but control conditional inclusions.
+
+- **Free Dependency File**: A top-level header that is always included unconditionally. These do not have dependency files and represent the public API (e.g., main headers).
+
+- **Implementation-Specific File**: A file tied to a specific CPU architecture or instruction set (e.g., `arm64/`, `haswell/`). These must be amalgamated.
+
+- **Generic File**: A shared file (under `generic/` or `simdjson/generic/`) that contains common code included once per implementation.
+
+- **Builtin File**: Special files under `simdjson/builtin/` that handle the builtin implementation, a fallback/default implementation used when no optimized implementation is available.
+
+- **Conditional Include Block**: A section wrapped in `#ifndef SIMDJSON_CONDITIONAL_INCLUDE` for editor-only or implementation-specific content.
+
+The script `singleheader/amalgation_helper.py` will generate an HTML report which you can use to visualize the status of each file.

 JSON is everywhere on the Internet. Servers spend a *lot* of time parsing it. We need a fresh
 approach. The simdjson library uses commonly available SIMD instructions and microparallel algorithms
 to parse JSON 4x  faster than RapidJSON and 25x faster than JSON for Modern C++.

   - `field.unescaped_key()` will get you the unescaped key string as a `std::string_view` instance. E.g., the JSON string `"\u00e1"` becomes the Unicode string `á`. Optionally,  you pass `true` as a parameter to the `unescaped_key` method if you want invalid escape sequences to be replaced by a default replacement character (e.g., `\ud800\ud801\ud811`): otherwise bad escape sequences lead to an immediate error.
   - `field.escaped_key()` will get you the key string as  as a `std::string_view` instance, but unlike `unescaped_key()`, the key is not processed, so no unescaping is done. E.g., the JSON string `"\u00e1"` becomes the Unicode string `\u00e1`. We expect that `escaped_key()` is faster than `field.unescaped_key()`.

   When you are iterating through an object, you are advancing through its keys and values. You should not also access the object or other objects. E.g. within a loop over `myobject`, you should not be accessing `myobject`. The following is an anti-pattern: `for(auto value: myobject) {myobject["mykey"]}`.
 
+  We discourage using the object iterators explicitly: `for(auto i = object.begin(); i != object.end(); i++) { auto field = *i; .... }`. In addition to the usual requirement to check against `end()` prior to dereferencing, you must also always dereference the pointer (`*it`) exactly once before you increment it (`it++`). You must also only deference the iterator once (never more than once). When compiling in
+  debug mode with development checks, we add asserts to help check whether you correctly
+  dereferenced the pointer before incrementing it.
+
   You should never reset an object as you are iterating through it. The following is an anti-pattern: `for(auto value: myobject) {myobject.reset()}`.
 * **Array Index:** Because it is forward-only, you cannot look up an array element by index. Instead,
   you should iterate through the array and keep an index yourself. Exceptionally, if need a single value
   out of the array, you may use an array access (e.g., `array[1]`). You should never reset an array as you are iterating through it. The following is an anti-pattern: `for(auto value: myarray) {myarray.reset()}`.
 * **Field Access:** To get the value of the "foo" field in an object, use `object["foo"]`. This will
   scan through the object looking for the field with the matching string, doing a character-by-character
-  comparison. It may generate the error `simdjson::NO_SUCH_FIELD` if there is no such key in the object, it may throw an exception (see [Error handling](#error-handling)). For efficiency reason, you should avoid looking up the same field repeatedly: e.g., do
+  comparison. It may generate the error `simdjson::NO_SUCH_FIELD` if there is no such key in the object, it may throw an exception (see [Error handling](#error-handling)). The returned value is only valid so long as you do not access another field: normally, you should therefore grab the value right after accessing a key (i.e., convert it to number, string, object, array...). For efficiency reason, you should avoid looking up the same field repeatedly: e.g., do
   not do `object["foo"]` followed by `object["foo"]` with the same `object` instance. Generally, you should not mix and match iterating through an object (`for(auto field : object) {...}`) and key accesses (`object["foo"]`): if you need to iterate through an object after a key access, you need to call `reset()` on the object. Whenever you call `reset()`, you need to keep in mind that though you can iterate over the array repeatedly, values should be consumedonly once (e.g., repeatedly calling `unescaped_key()` on the same  key is forbidden). Keep in mind that On-Demand does not buffer or save the result of the parsing: if you repeatedly access `object["foo"]`, then it must repeatedly seek the key and parse the content. The library does not provide a distinct function to check if a key is present, instead we recommend you attempt to access the key: e.g., by doing `ondemand::value val{}; if (!object["foo"].get(val)) {...}`, you have that `val` contains the requested value inside the if clause.  It is your responsibility as a user to temporarily keep a reference to the value (`auto v = object["foo"]`), or to consume the content and store it in your own data structures. If you consume an
   object twice: `std::string_view(object["foo"]` followed by `std::string_view(object["foo"]` then your code
   is in error. Furthermore, you can only consume one field at a time, on the same object. The

-The `at_path_with_wildcard` function in simdjson extends the JSONPath querying capabilities by supporting wildcard expressions (`*`) in JSON paths.

For example, you can use `$.address.*` to fetch all fields within the `address` object or `$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[*]` to retrieve all phone numbers across multiple objects in an array.
+The `for_each_at_path_with_wildcard` function in simdjson extends the JSONPath querying capabilities by supporting wildcard expressions (`*`) in JSON paths.

For example, you can use `$.address.*` to fetch all fields within the `address` object or `$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[*]` to retrieve all phone numbers across multiple objects in an array.
 
-The `*` wildcard matches all elements at a specific level. For instance, `$.address.*` retrieves all key-value pairs in the `address` object, while `$.*.streetAddress` fetches all `streetAddress` fields across objects at the root level. You can combine wildcards with array indexing. For example, `$.phoneNumbers[*].numbers[1]` retrieves the second number from each `numbers` array in the `phoneNumbers` array. If no elements match the wildcard query, the function returns an empty result. For instance, querying `$.empty_object.*` or `$.empty_array.*` will yield an empty set.
