Author real proper Matins/Vespers content for the Nativity of St. John the Baptist

nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist.yml's `common` field (common-of-an-apostle) was the same mistaken placeholder as the Beheading's, but this feast needed a different fix: the reference engine assigns it no Commune at all -- every [Rule] line in Sancti/06-24.txt and SanctiM/06-24.txt points to proper text, never a Commune category -- so there's no better-fitting id to swap in either. Authored the real proper content that was still falling through to the apostle Common, live-verified against the local Divinum Officium CGI instance (Monastic Tridentinum 1617): - Matins invitatory antiphon ("Regem Præcursóris Dóminum") - Matins hymn ("Antra desérti téneris," with the Monastic doxology substitution already used by this feast's own Lauds/Vespers hymns) - Full Matins Nocturn 1-3 psalmody + nocturn versicles (Nocturn 1/2 reuse St. Lawrence's own shared psalm-number pool per "Psalmi Dominica"; Nocturn 3 reuses St. Lawrence's own canticle scripture files verbatim, since the citations are identical) - Vespers psalmody (only 4 psalm slots at this Monastic rank, not 5 as a naive reading of the raw Ant Vespera list would suggest) - Nocturn 2/3 responsories on the existing nocturn-readings file `common: common-of-an-apostle` is left in place as a fully inert placeholder (a non-optional field with no better id available) with an updated comment explaining why.

+# Live-verified against Divinum Officium (Monastic Tridentinum 1617,
+# command=prayMatutinum, 2026-06-24). This feast's reference file
+# (Sancti/06-24.txt) says "Psalmi Dominica" (use Sunday's own psalm
+# pool), and the live render confirms it: Nocturn 1's psalm numbers
+# (1,2,4,5,8,10) and Nocturn 2's (14,20,33,63,64,91) are St. Lawrence's
+# own psalm sets exactly (see st-lawrence.yml's own note that this pool
+# is shared, not unique to one saint) -- only the antiphon text is
+# proper to this feast. Nocturn 3 uses the same three canticles already
+# authored for St. Lawrence (Eccli 14:22;15:3-4;15:6 / Jer 17:7-8 /
+# Eccli 31:8-11 -- data/scripture/{sir-14,sir-15,jer-17,sir-31}.yml,
+# reused verbatim, not re-transcribed), but under a single proper
+# antiphon repeated across all three canticles (the live render shows
+# one antiphon, not three), unlike Lawrence's own distinct nocturn-3
+# antiphon. No `category` cross-reference here (unlike st-lawrence.yml's
+# own `common-of-a-martyr`) since this feast draws on no Commune at all
+# -- see nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist.yml's own `common` field comment
+# in data/calendar/saints/.
