feat(examples): ship two real local calendars, with their limits stated
Poland and the Benedictines, in the flat INI form, installed beside the invented diocesan example. poland.ini -- 17 entries from the Calendarium Perpetuum pro Dioecesium Poloniae (1964), promulgated under Rubricarum instructum and applying to the 1962 Missal. Transcribed from a published Polish EF ordo that names that same calendar, cross-checked against missalemeum's supplement page for the two formularies 1964 added (13 and 15 July). Date, Latin name and class were read from the source for every entry; three classes could not be recovered from the PDF's column layout and are marked INFERRED where they appear, with the reasoning. The header carries an edition warning that is a real trap here: the Proprium Poloniae of 1921 and 1934 is still bound into many missals and carries an outdated arrangement of dioceses and ranks. It is not this calendar, and it is exactly the kind of plausible wrong-edition source that has cost this project time before. benedictine.ini -- two entries, and the comment explaining why is the point of shipping it. Counted across the Norcia ordo: 86 "I cl.", 43 "II cl.", ZERO "III cl." and ZERO "IV cl.", against 103 "Semidup." and ~96 "Dup.". The monastic rite uses the Roman classes at the top and the older Duplex / Semiduplex grades below, exactly where the Roman calendar has III and IV class. colitur's rank vocabulary cannot express those, so most Benedictine propers cannot be written here at all -- a mismatch of vocabularies between related rites, not a gap in the data. Rather than invent a Duplex -> Class3 mapping the source never states, that file ships only what its ordo gives in Roman terms and lists roughly two dozen excluded feasts BY NAME, so the omission is visible instead of silent. Both headers say plainly that they are examples and not authorities: they are transcriptions from published ordines, none of the five test layers can vouch for either, and both should be checked against the reader's own ordo. The cram test asserts only what we control -- that they parse, convert and apply -- and says so. They also demonstrate the precedence engine on real data: the Benedictine Transitus is I class and takes 21 March with the Lenten feria commemorated, and Maurus is II class and takes 15 January with Paul the First Hermit commemorated.
