story-to-pack: add the corpora and the catalogue v2/v3

Fourteen corpora split and classified: aesop, bierce, chekhov, holmes, keefe, lawson, lorimer, maupassant, nobody, plaintales, poe, torchy, wallingford and winesburg, each with its splitter and the hand-written groups and pages; catalogue v2 and v3; and the shared splitters gutenberg_chunks.py, se_split.py and se_build.py.

+"""Split the Project Gutenberg plain text of Guy de Maupassant, *Original Short Stories, Volume IV*
+(eBook #3080), into stories, then cut scenes with the same rule as ../chunk.py and
+../wharton/split_gutenberg.py (paragraph boundaries, ~320 words, tail >= 80).
+Deterministic: titles are the twelve contents entries, matched as whole upper-case lines after the
+indented contents block. Two body headers differ from their contents entry ("THE TRIP OF LE HORLA",
+"FAREWELL!"), so HEADS maps those. "PART I".."PART V" headings are dropped, as is the one bracketed
+editorial note ("[This story appeared in ...]"); the Gutenberg licence after END is dropped."""
