When explode resolves merge anchors (<<:), items copied from the
alias target retained the original parent pointer instead of being
set to the enclosing node being reconstructed. This caused GetPath()
to return wrong paths for children of merge-anchored nodes, making
subsequent merge operations target the wrong LHS keys.
In fixedReconstructAliasedMap, set copied.Parent = node after copy.
In reconstructAliasedMap (non-spec path), replace AddChild (which
creates sequence-style numeric-index entries) with AddKeyValueChild
to properly reconstruct mapping key-value pairs. AddKeyValueChild
also correctly sets parent references via SetParent.
- Allow inline maps instead of just aliases
- Allow aliased sequences
- Disallow other types
- Use tag `!!merge` instead of key `<<`
- Fix insertion index for sequence merge
