didericis 41227c6a0f papers: rename folders and retitle
- Main paper: dual_decomposition_minimal_counterexamples/ ->
  face_monochromatic_pairs/. Title is now
  "Face-Monochromatic Pairs and the Four Colour Theorem".
- Companion paper: dual_decomposition_iterated_reduction/ ->
  iterated_reduction_in_reduced_dual/. Title is now
  "An Iterated Reduction in the Reduced Dual". Its prose and bibliography
  cite the parent under the new title.
- Update one absolute sys.path reference inside
  check_conj_face_kempe_n15.py that pointed at the old folder.
