fix(theme-classic): render mobile html navbar item as li - #12853
When an HTML navbar item is added to the navigation bar, it should render as a list item (<li>) when displayed inside the mobile hamburger menu, because the mobile sidebar renders items within an unordered list (<ul className="menu__list">).
Previously, HtmlNavbarItem only rendered an <li> when isDropdownItem was true, and defaulted to a <div> otherwise. This caused invalid HTML markup (a direct <div> child under <ul>) and broke layout/styling inside the mobile menu.
Proposed Changes
Update HtmlNavbarItem to choose 'li' when either isDropdownItem or mobile is true.
Add unit tests in packages/docusaurus-theme-classic/src/theme/NavbarItem/__tests__/HtmlNavbarItem.test.tsx covering desktop top-level items, desktop dropdown items, mobile items, and mobile dropdown items.
Test Plan
Added unit tests verifying:
Desktop top-level items render as <div> with navbar__item class.
Desktop dropdown items render as <li>.
Mobile items render as <li> with menu__list-item class.
Mobile dropdown items render as <li> with menu__list-item class.
Custom className continues to be preserved.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Mobile navigation items now render as list elements, improving consistency with the navigation structure across screen sizes. Desktop top-level items continue to use their existing layout, and dropdown items remain list elements. This update is limited to how navigation items are represented; it does not change their visible content or available behavior.

When rendering a navbar HTML item in the mobile menu, the item is placed inside the 'menu__list' unordered list. Previously, it was always rendered as a 'div' unless it was a dropdown item, which caused invalid HTML structure and broken layout inside the mobile menu list.
