Feature: Allow unlimited multi-level navigation (#1431)

* Allow unlimited multi-level navigation

This PR supersedes #462.

The only user-level difference from #462 is that disambiguation of parent pages has to use either `grand_parent` or `ancestor` titles: the somewhat unnatural `section_id` and `in_section` fields are not supported.

The implementation has been significantly simplified by the changes introduced in v0.7.0 of the theme.

* Detect cyclic parenthood

A page should not have a parent or ancestor with the same title. If it does, the location of the repeated link is marked by ∞, to facilitate debugging the navigation (and an unbounded loop leading to a build exception is avoided).

* Add nav_error_report warning in main navigation

When activated by `nav_error_report: true` in `_config.yml`, displays warnings about pages with the same title as their parent page or an ancestral page.

* Cache site-nav with links to all pages

The extra cached site-nav is used for determining breadcrumbs and children navigation, which may involve pages that are excluded from the main navigation.

* Replace code for determining children by inclusion of components/nav/children.html

* Update CHANGELOG.md
