Record the Confessor Matins psalmody categories in TODO.md

Documents the Francis of Paola / Basil the Great live-verification,
the identical-apart-from-versicles finding, the Duplex+ saints checked
for proper-antiphon eligibility, and the M1617-kalendar wrinkle found
along the way (a SanctiM file existing doesn't mean the saint is
actually on the Monastic Tridentinum 1617 calendar).

+### Matins psalmody overrides — Confessor categories authored, both tiers identical apart from versicles (2026-08)
+
+Two more Common categories authored, following the same live-verify-a-saint-with-no-proper-
+antiphon method as Martyr/Apostle:
+
+- **`common-of-a-confessor`** (Confessor Not a Bishop, "vide C5"): from St. Francis of Paola
+  (2030-04-02, confirmed clean — safely outside Holy Week/Easter octave that year, per his own
+  saint-file comment). Nocturn 1 = Ps 1,2,4,5,8,10; Nocturn 2 = Ps 14,20,23,95,96,97; Nocturn 3
+  = one antiphon over 3 OT canticles (Sirach 14/15, Jeremiah 17, Sirach 31 — same refs already
+  authored for `common-of-a-martyr`, reused as-is).
+- **`common-of-a-confessor-bishop`** ("vide C4"): from St. Basil the Great (2035-06-14, already
+  live-verified clean per his own saint-file's note that his rendered Matins is byte-identical
+  to this Common despite his own `[Rule]` saying "vide C4a"/Doctor). Live-verified this Common's
+  psalm numbers and antiphon text are **word-for-word identical** to `common-of-a-confessor` in
+  all three nocturns — the only real difference is the three nocturn-closing versicles, which
+  swap plain-confessor imagery for priestly/episcopal imagery (e.g. Nocturn 3's "Tu es sacérdos
+  in ætérnum * secúndum órdinem Melchísedech"). Not modeled as an `aliases` redirect (unlike
+  Common-of-a-Martyr-Bishop → Common-of-a-Martyr, a genuine zero-difference redirect) because the
+  versicles really do differ and the mechanism has no partial-override/diff support — kept as
+  its own full duplicate file instead.
+
+Checked every Duplex+ saint on the calendar in both Common categories (St. Aloysius Gonzaga,
+St. Anthony of Padua, St. Paschal Baylon, St. John Cantius, St. Bernardine of Siena, St. Joseph
+Calasanctius, St. Raymond Nonnatus, St. Anthony Mary Zaccaria for `common-of-a-confessor`; St.
+Norbert, St. Andrew Corsini for `common-of-a-confessor-bishop`) — none has a proper antiphon of
+his own, so (same as Common-of-a-Martyr-Bishop before it) neither category currently has a
+saint eligible for its own `saints/` entry; a real, not accidental, gap, matching the existing
+policy of only authoring `saints/*.yml` where a genuine proper deviation exists.
+
+Two live saints, St. Aloysius Gonzaga (June 21) and St. Norbert (June 6), turned out **not** to
+be on the Monastic Tridentinum 1617 calendar at all despite having a `SanctiM/MM-DD.txt` file —
+confirmed via `Tabulae/Kalendaria/M1617.txt` (no entry) and `Tabulae/Kalendaria/M1930.txt` (only
+Norbert, added there) — both were canonized well after 1617 (Aloysius 1726, though pre-1617 in
+Norbert's case his 1582 canonization still postdates the M1617 calendar's fixed content). Their
+`SanctiM` stub files are shared infrastructure for later Monastic versions (1930/1963), not
+proof the saint was ever actually prayed under M1617 itself — a live `Pofficium.pl` query on
+their own date just falls through to a plain feria. Not a blocker for authoring the Common
+category files themselves (the Common content is shared infrastructure regardless of which
+Monastic version's kalendar wires a given saint into it), but worth remembering next time a
+"vide C" saint's own date doesn't reproduce under `version=Monastic Tridentinum 1617` — check
+`Tabulae/Kalendaria/M1617.txt` before assuming the date/year picked was wrong.
+
+`tests/hours/matins.test.ts` gained two new Common-tier proofs (Francis of Paola,
+`common-of-a-confessor`; Basil the Great, `common-of-a-confessor-bishop` — same psalm numbers as
+the other, checked directly). The old ferial-fallback proof (St. John Bosco, `common-of-a-
+confessor`, now superseded) was swapped for Ss. Fabian and Sebastian (`common-of-several-
+martyrs`, still unauthored, 2029-01-20, already live-verified clean). `npm test` (377 tests),
+`tsc --noEmit` pass.
