Language menu in side nav: paths default to locale homepage not translations of current page

[chalin]

Consider https://opentelemetry.io/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/, the top-nav language dropdown menu is:

<ul class="dropdown-menu">
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/pt/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/">Português</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/ja/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/">日本語 (Japanese)</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/fr/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/">Français</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/es/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/">Español</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/zh/docs/what-is-opentelemetry/">中文 (Chinese)</a></li>
</ul>

The same menu on mobile, which appears in the side-nav under the hamburger, is like this when sidebar_cache_limit is set to a very low number, like 1:

<ul class="dropdown-menu">
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/fr/docs/">Français</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/es/docs/">Español</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/pt/docs/">Português</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/ja/docs/">日本語 (Japanese)</a></li>
  <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="/zh/docs/">中文 (Chinese)</a></li>
</ul>

Notice that the paths all point to the locale's landing page. It might have to do with caching of partials?

For the record, the paths are correct (refer to translations of the current page) for the Kubernetes website. But they've implemented their own mobile-only hamburger for the top-nav: e.g., visit https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/ on mobile (page source). /cc @sftim

Just so folks know, that "hamburger" menu predates Kubernetes switching to Docsy.

Also also, partials are cached per localization in Hugo.
