YAMLConfiguration handles trailing comma not as expected

[pgeier]

What happened?

I've got a json file with the following structure

{"rules": [
  {...}, 
  {...},
   ..., 
  {...},
]}

The file is read with eckit::LocalConfiguration{eckit::YAMLConfiguration{eckit::PathName{...}}}
and accessed with .getSubConfigurations("rules"), which returns a std::vector<eckit::LocalConfiguration>.

Now, because of the trailing comma, the vector contains an additional element which is printed as LocalConfiguration[root=].
This element is not expected.

For a formal JSON, the trailing comma would not be allowed. In a YAML file it should (AFAIK - maybe compare with this closed issue on the YAML formatter prettier: prettier/prettier#7452)

What are the steps to reproduce the bug?

Create an additional test that parses a list with trailing comma.

Relevant log output

There are just followup errors when accessing keys in the subdictionary.
Explicitly printing the last entry shows `LocalConfiguration[root=]`.
