Redesign the Easter-octave backlog: floor-gated, one per day
Deploy / deploy (push) Successful in 1m28s

Replaced the multi-day cascading queue with the actual intended design:
only candidates at or above duplex-majus are worth carrying out of the
Palm-Sunday-through-Low-Sunday span at all - below that, a candidate
simply lapses for the year. Of those that clear the floor, the Nth day
after Low Sunday celebrates the Nth one (native-date order), winning
outright with no rank fight, demoting whatever's natively there to a
commemoration - one per day, positional, not a free-day search.

Caught a real bug while re-verifying: the ordinary single-hop transfer
check was independently leaking Low Sunday's own signal into the next
day, letting a below-floor candidate bypass the new gate. Fixed by
excluding the whole span from that path.

Inventoried the only duplex-majus+ candidates that can ever fall in the
reachable window (St. Benedict, St. Gabriel the Archangel, the
Annunciation, St. Mark, Ss. Philip & James), then bumped St. Patrick's
own rank to duplex-majus by direct instruction, adding him as the 6th.
