calendar: pull December's sanctoral calendar (pre-1955 pull, 12/12 -- complete)

16 saints, plus a propers-slug update for the pre-existing Immaculate
Conception entry. Also extends the Advent temporal-category fix
(previous commit) to Christmastide: St. Thomas of Canterbury, only
Semiduplex, wins outright within the Christmas Octave in the real
Monastic 1617 engine, which the stronger privileged-feria tier would
have wrongly forbidden -- Christmastide now shares Advent's
privileged-feria-minor tier instead. Every real winner this month falls
within one of these two newly-corrected seasons.

This completes the first pass of the pre-1955 sanctoral calendar pull
across all twelve months.
