Fix empty and duplicated glossary breadcrumb items #867

Description

@LukasWallrich

Why this needs addressing

The live JSON-LD on https://forrt.org/glossary/english/h_index/ currently contains:

  • position 2, name: "Glossary", with an empty item;
  • position 3, another name: "Glossary", pointing to /glossary/english/.

This comes from layouts/partials/structured-data/breadcrumbs.html walking the stub /glossary/ ancestor and the language section independently.

Requested change

After the glossary hub is repaired, make the breadcrumb trail explicit for glossary pages:

  • FORRT → Glossary (the real hub URL) → English/German/Chinese/Arabic/Turkish → term;
  • every ListItem has a non-empty, canonical item URL;
  • labels are unique and describe their level;
  • positions are sequential and the final item is the current page.

Apply equivalent validation to curated resources and other deep sections.

Acceptance criteria

  • No generated breadcrumb contains an empty item or duplicated level label.
  • Representative glossary pages pass JSON parsing and the Rich Results Test.
  • The fix does not create multiple competing BreadcrumbList blocks.
