Fix Beheading of St. John the Baptist's wrong Common category

decollation-of-st-john-baptist.yml's `common` field was set to
common-of-an-apostle -- a mistaken placeholder (he isn't an apostle) that
leaked into the Aug 29 Matins invitatory and the Lauds/Vespers office
bundle. Corrected to common-of-a-martyr, matching the file's own already-
correct `minorHoursCommon` field.

Also corrected a stale comment in the feast's own nocturn-readings file
claiming neither Nocturn 2 nor 3 has a proper responsory: Nocturn 2's own
closing responsory is genuine proper text (not a Commune reference like
Nocturn 3's), and is now authored.

# kalendar check (2025-08-29) -- winner outright, Duplex, over the stub
# St. Sabina (see st-sabina.yml). About St. John the Baptist's beheading,
# not a feast of the Lord/BVM, so kept in scope like his Nativity in June.
# "common-of-an-apostle" is a loose fit (he isn't one) but the closest
# existing category to "a major male saint honored with his own high
# feast" -- same judgment call as nativity-of-st-john-the-baptist.yml.
# Own proper collect and antiphon.
