Alias Abbot/Confessor-not-Bishop/Apostles-plural to existing Matins Common schemes

Live-verified byte-identical psalms, antiphons, and versicles against
St. Maurus/St. Gall (Abbot), St. Francis of Assisi/St. Jerome
(Confessor-not-Bishop), and the Octave of Ss. Peter and Paul
(Apostles-plural) — genuine full redirects, not new content. Swaps the
matins.test.ts ferial-fallback proof off St. Anthony Abbot (no longer
unauthored) onto St. Monica (Widow, still unauthored).
