Description
Sometimes volume/issue numbers are set to zero (e.g. when they shouldn't have one in a special collection or similar). When displaying metadata and citations, we shouldn't display the zero.

Research direction
Start by locating the citation-style and metadata-rendering entry points in the Janeway codebase, then check for existing tests covering volume and issue formatting. The work is done when zero-valued volume or issue numbers are omitted from displayed metadata and citations without removing nonzero values.
