- Narrow error to non-null object before using in operator

* revert: keep destructured fetch from FetchApi
Destructuring fetch from FetchApi is fine — revert to original
pattern while keeping the dependency array and other fixes.

Extract entityPresentationSnapshot helper to eliminate unsafe `as Entity`
casts when passing CompoundEntityRef to EntityPresentationApi.forEntity(),
which only accepts Entity | string. The helper safely discriminates input
types and stringifies CompoundEntityRef before calling the API.
- Add entityPresentationSnapshot as a public export from catalog-react
- Remove duplicated getEntityTitle/getTitle helpers across 5 files
- Fix useAsync dependency array in TemplateFormPreviewer
- Update TSDoc across all presentation API surfaces to reference the
new helper
- Update entity-presentation.md docs with usage guidance and migration

--old variants of how-to-guides.

* verify-links: catch broken anchors, directory links, and invisible characters
Enhances the link verification script to catch several categories of
broken links that were previously missed:
- Broken anchors (cross-file and same-file) by extracting heading slugs
from target documents and verifying anchors resolve
- Directory links missing index.md suffix within docs/
- Invisible/zero-width characters in URLs
- Case-sensitive anchor mismatches
Also strips fenced code blocks before scanning for links to avoid false
positives, and handles duplicate heading slug deduplication (GitHub and
Docusaurus append -1, -2, etc.).
Fixes a few newly-caught broken links in existing docs.
