Help centers using the documentation layout now render correctly in two
cases that previously fell back to the wrong output. Opening a portal at
its custom-domain root (e.g. docs.example.com/ ) now shows the full
documentation home
in place instead of the classic layout, and portals whose locale is a
region variant that Chatwoot doesn't ship a
translation for (e.g. th_TH , fr_ML ) now show their categories in the
sidebar on article pages.

## How to test
1. Create a portal with the documentation layout and a custom domain
(e.g. example.chat.test ), with at least one
category containing a published article.
2. Visit the custom-domain root ( http://example.chat.test:3000/ ) → it
should show the full documentation home
(sidebar, topbar), not the classic layout, with no redirect.
3. Set the portal's locale to a region variant Chatwoot doesn't
translate, e.g. th_TH , with categories/articles
under that locale.
4. Open an article → the sidebar should list the article's category and
sibling articles. Before the fix the sidebar
was empty for these locales.
