forrtproject.github.io Add Replication Network Blog with 158 posts under Replication Hub

Adds the Replication Network Blog archive (158 posts, 191 webp images) to the Replication Hub menu as requested in #[issue_number].

Changes

Content

Added 158 blog posts to /content/replication-hub/blog/ with proper front matter (title, date, author, tags)
Added 191 images to /static/replication-network-blog/ in optimized webp format
All image references in blog posts updated to use webp extensions

Image Optimization

Converted all 192 original images (jpg, png, gif) to webp format
Achieved ~30% reduction in total image size (from ~6MB to 4.2MB)
Maintained image quality while improving page load performance

Hugo Implementation

Created blog layouts (/layouts/blog/list.html, /layouts/blog/single.html) for listing and individual post views
Added menu entry under Replication Hub (weight 70) in config/_default/menus.toml
Blog accessible at /replication-hub/blog/

Bug Fix

Fixed pre-existing navbar URL validation bug that prevented builds:

<!-- Before: fails when .URL length < 4 -->
{{ if and (gt (len .URL) 3) (eq (slicestr .URL 0 4) "http") }}

<!-- After: properly guards slicestr -->
{{ if ge (len .URL) 4 }}
  {{ if eq (slicestr .URL 0 4) "http" }}

This bug affected menu items with empty URLs (e.g., parent "About FORRT" menu) and blocked the entire site build.
