RM-06: Which rudraksha goes with which planet

Each planet has one rudraksha bead, from the one-faced bead for the Sun to the nine-faced bead for Ketu. Texts differ on this, so the API uses the most common table and uses it everywhere. For the Sun, the twelve-faced bead is also given, since it is the one more often worn.
