[Catalyst] Chained actions with can't terminate with :PathPart('') ?

[Alexander Hartmaier]

Trevors example might overwhelm you a bit if you're not already that
familiar with chained.

The thing to understand is, every endpoint needs to end with an action
that uses Args, every part in the chain CaptureArgs, both might be (0).

So in your example you need a middle chain part for lot with two
endpoints, one with Args(0) to match just /lot and another one with
Args(1) that captures the lot id and matches /lot/5.
