1. Navigation tags (parent_path)
   1. Fixed count, absolute_count, and absolute_results when filtering by parent_path with include_self="no" — values now match parent_id behavior
   2. parent_path is applied before counting (not mid-tree walk), so counters are no longer polluted by unrelated branches
   3. Invalid or unmatched parent_path values now correctly trigger {no_results} instead of returning the full tree
   4. parent_path accepts leading/trailing slashes, relative paths, and same-domain absolute URLs (e.g. https://example.com/education/...)
2. Control Panel — URL patterns
   1. Fixed Entry URL Patterns and Category URL Patterns save handlers to read MiniGrid POST data safely on PHP 8+
   2. Iterates all MiniGrid rows instead of hardcoding new_row_0
   3. Returns an error when save data is missing instead of silently failing
   4. Fixed copy-paste bug: category settings section field key was channel_url instead of category_url
3. Breadcrumbs
   1. Fixed invalid HTML on the current (last) crumb in basic breadcrumbs mode — closing tag was <span> instead of </span>
4. PHP compatibility
   1. Updated Navigation::getDisplay() to use explicit nullable type (?LayoutInterface) for PHP 8.4

- Fixed a bug where when using parent_path="" was returning wrong data in absolute_count, absolute_results, and level variables.

- Fixed: Sorting the navigation list threw a PHP 8 deprecation error (usort(): Returning bool from comparison function is deprecated) whenever custom fields were present on a navigation entry. The comparison callback in NavigationFieldLayout.php now returns a proper integer via the spaceship operator (<=>) instead of a boolean.

- Fixed: A PHP 8.1 deprecation warning (str_replace(): Passing null to parameter #3 ($subject)... is deprecated) appeared when rendering nested navigation tags with an empty child template. ParseVariables.php now casts the value to a string before passing it to str_replace().

- Fixed: Passing parent_path with a leading (or trailing) slash — e.g. parent_path="/parent-2" — silently returned the entire navigation tree instead of just that branch and its children, because the value being matched against (link_string) never has slashes. parent_path is now normalized (slashes trimmed) before comparison, so "/parent-2" and "parent-2" behave identically.
