copy(web): replace em dashes in public copy
Rewrites every visitor-facing string that used an em dash, choosing the
punctuation for what the dash was doing: a colon before a list or
explanation, a comma for an aside, a full stop between two thoughts,
parentheses for an aside mid-sentence. Covers page titles and meta
descriptions, the home and admissions guide copy, school page headings
and notes, the compare page, metric labels and tooltips.

Two rewrites also fix the sentence around them: the closure banner no
longer repeats "proposed for closure", and the cut-off caveat's list of
priorities now parses.

A lone dash marking a missing value in a table cell stays: it is a data
convention, not prose. A Jest guard walks the source with the TypeScript
parser and fails on any other em dash in a string or JSX text node.

From the most recent admissions round ({entryLabel}). &quot;First choice&quot; means
families who ranked the school top of their application form (officially a &quot;first
preference&quot;). Schools never see your ranking: places are decided only by the
school&apos;s admission criteria, so listing a school lower down never hurts your chances.
These are National Offer Day offers. Waiting lists and appeals can change the final
intake.
