Add November Matins readings for SanctiM-track saints

14 of November's 16 SanctiM-track saints authored, including All Saints of the Benedictine Order -- a genuinely Monastic-only feast with both rich content and (unusually for this pass) an available English translation. St. Martin I is another off-date case like St. Paul the Hermit, and two more saints (St. Emilian, St. Odo) turn out Monastic-only-but-Common-only, extending October's wrinkle.

+# Matins Nocturn 2 reading for St. Chrysogonus, Martyr (Nov 24). No
+# genuine SanctiM match: the correct Tridentine file is the suffixed
+# `Sancti/11-24o.txt` (the plain `Sancti/11-24.txt` is St. John of the
+# Cross instead), and the only SanctiM file for this date bases
+# `@Sancti/11-24` (John of the Cross, not Chrysogonus) — a missed
+# pre-1955-pool candidate rather than a genuine SanctiM case (see
+# memory vu-matins-pre1955-saints, vu-matins-sanctim-saints).
+# web/www/horas/Latin/Sancti/11-24o.txt, English/Sancti/11-24o.txt.
+# Single lesson (simplex-feast Lectio93), one continuous account, no

+        Chrysógonus, Diocletiáno imperatóre, Romæ inclusus in carcere, ibi biennium sanctæ
+        Anastasiæ facultátibus vixit; quam etiam, afflictam propter Christum a viro suo
+        Publio, proptereáque a suis oratiónibus per litteras auxílium postulántem, mútuis
+        epistolis est consolatus. Sed, cum imperátor Romam scripsísset ut, reliquis
+        Christiánis qui in vinculis essent interfectis, Chrysógonus Aquilejam ad se
+        mitterétur, eo perductus est. Cui imperátor: Accersívi, inquit, te, Chrysógone, ut
+        honóribus augeam, si modo induxeris ánimum deos cólere. At ille: Ego eum, qui vere
+        est Deus, mente et oratióne véneror; deos autem, qui nihil sunt nisi dæmonum
+        simulacra, odi et éxsecror. Quo responso excandéscens imperátor, ad Aquas Gradatas
+        eum secúri pércuti jubet octavo Kalendas Decembris. Cujus corpus, projectum in mare,
+        paulo post in littore invéntum, Zóilus presbyter in suis ædibus sepelívit.

+        Chrysogonus was imprisoned at Rome in the reign of the Emperor Diocletian. There he
+        lived for the space of two years upon the alms of the holy Anastasia. She was
+        suffering much persecution from her husband Publius for Christ's Name's sake, and was
+        used to write to Chrysogonus to ask for the help of his prayers, and he in return
+        comforted her by his epistles. Presently the Emperor wrote to Rome commanding the
+        rest of the Christians who were in prison there to be put to death, and Chrysogonus to
+        be sent to himself at Aquileia. When he was brought thither, he said unto him: I have
+        sent for thee, O Chrysogonus, that I may increase thine honours, if only thou wilt
+        bring thy mind to worship the gods. Thereto Chrysogonus answered: With my mind and
+        with my prayers I worship Him Who is God indeed, but such gods as are nothing but
+        images of devils, them I hate and curse. Then was the Emperor kindled to fury at this
+        answer, and commanded Chrysogonus to be beheaded at Aquae Gradatae upon the 24th day
+        of November. His body was cast into the sea, but found a little while afterwards
+        washed up upon the shore, and the Priest Zoilus took it and buried it in his own
+        house.
