Add Common-of-an-Angel Lauds/Vespers psalmody category

No dedicated numbered Common exists for Angels in the reference engine;
St. Michael's own rule says plain "Psalmi Dominica" with his own proper
antiphons, which Guardian Angels (no proper of her own) reuses
byte-for-byte at both hours. Authored as a reusable category so any
future proper-less Angel addition benefits automatically.

# Generic Common-of-an-Angel Lauds psalmody. Unlike every other Common
# here, there is no dedicated numbered "Cx" Common file for Angels in the
# Monastic reference engine at all (checked the full CommuneM directory
# listing) -- St. Michael's own SanctiM rule instead says plain "Psalmi
# Dominica" (Sunday's own psalmody) and carries his own proper antiphons
# directly. Live-verified (2026-08-28) that Guardian Angels (Oct 2, no
# proper text of her own) reuses Michael's own antiphons byte-for-byte at
# both Lauds and Vespers -- i.e. Michael's proper *is* the de facto
# generic Angel scheme any other Angel-Common saint without proper text
# of their own falls back to. St. Gabriel and St. Raphael each have their
# own genuinely distinct proper antiphons (not this generic scheme, and
# not each other's) -- not modeled here since a per-feast Lauds override
# would be the correct home for those, not this category.
#
# Psalm numbers here (92, 99, 62, Canticum Trium Puerorum) are still the
# usual fixed Duplex-majus+ set, confirmed against Michael's own live
# Lauds -- only Vespers substitutes "Psalmi Dominica" (109-112) instead,
# see the Vespers category file's own note.
