calendar: pull August's sanctoral calendar (pre-1955 pull, 8/12)

18 saints (14 real winners + 4 stubs), plus propers-slug updates for the
4 pre-existing August entries. Notable this month: several dates have a
real named secondary saint permanently subordinate to an unmodeled fixed
octave (Lawrence's own, the Assumption's) or the fixed Transfiguration --
excluded entirely rather than guessed at, since this app can't yet
represent the actual blocking primary (a known, deferred octave gap).
Most notable casualty: St. Clare (Aug 12).
