In many cases a static string literal is used as key. Thus
having the argument type be `const std::string&` is suboptimal
since an `std::string` object needs to be constructed before
the call.
C++17 introduced `std::string_view`, using which the call
can be done with less overhead, as the `std::string_view`
is non-owning and may be passed in registers entirely.
So make `YamlObject::{contains,operator[]}` take the string keys
in `std::string_view`s.
Unfortunately, that is not sufficient yet, because `std::map::find()`
takes an reference to `const key_type`, which would be `const std::string&`
in the case of `YamlParser`. However, with a transparent comparator
such as `std::less<>` `std::map::find()` is able to accept any
object as the argument, and it forwards it to the comparator.
So make `YamlParser::dictionary_` use `std::less<>` as the comparator
to enable the use of `std::map::find()` with any type of argument.
