Summary
When you publish only some pending changes (granular publishing), Mintlify now refuses the publish if the selection would add navigation errors that the live site doesn't already have. Nothing is committed and the changes stay pending. Publishing all changes works as before. This PR adds that behavior to the granular publishing notes.

Changes
editor/publish.mdx: new bullet under granular publishing about refused selections and how to fix themes,frandzhpagesNote
Low Risk
Documentation-only updates across four locale files with no runtime or config changes.
Overview
Documents granular publishing behavior when a partial publish would introduce new navigation errors on the live site (for example, a tab alongside top-level groups). Mintlify refuses the publish, makes no commit, and leaves changes pending; users must fix navigation or adjust their checkbox selection.
The same bullet is added under Publish specific changes in
editor/publish.mdxand the es, fr, and zh translations, aligned with the product change in mintlify/server#8505.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 1639b9e. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
