What?
Closes #76533
Adds a character limit control to the Breadcrumbs block that truncates the rendered breadcrumb trail with an ellipsis (...) when the defined limit is exceeded.
Why?
The Breadcrumbs block currently has no way to limit the trail's length. On mobile viewports and narrow layouts, a deep breadcrumb path easily wraps to multiple lines, breaking layouts and consuming disproportionate vertical space. This feature provides a native way to gracefully truncate the output for better responsive design.
The behavior mirrors the existing Excerpt block controls for consistency with established patterns in Gutenberg.
Testing Instructions
20and verify breadcrumbs are truncated with ellipsis50and verify more complete trail is shown0(disabled) and verify full breadcrumb trail is displayed
