Comment:

 This patch adds a targeted CSS rule for ''.wp-block-post-author-
 biography'' in Twenty Twenty-Five to prevent overflow when the author bio
 contains a long unbroken string.

 **Changes**
 • Added ''assets/css/author-bio-wrap.css'' with ''overflow-wrap:
 anywhere'' and ''word-break: break-word'' rules.
 • Enqueued it specifically for the core/post-author-biography block using
 ''wp_enqueue_block_style'' in functions.php, with both src and path for
 performance inlining.

 **Testing**
 • Reproduced on a fresh WP 6.8.1 and trunk install with Twenty Twenty-Five
 active.
 • Steps: Add a long (300+ char) string without spaces in the Biographical
 Info field, view on a single post with Post Author Biography block.
 • Before: Biography text overflows horizontally, breaking layout.
 • After: Text wraps inside the container, no horizontal scroll.

 Tested in Chrome 138, Firefox 128, and Edge 127 on Windows 11, plus Chrome
 138 on macOS 14.

 **Attachments**
 • Before and after screenshots.
 • Patch file 59746.diff.

 Ready for testing and feedback.
