House lord placements

The lord of a house carries that house's affairs into whichever house it sits in, and the 144 possible pairings — twelve lords in twelve houses — are one of the oldest interpretive tables in Vedic astrology. The lord of the 2nd in the 11th says something about money that the lord of the 2nd in the 12th does not. This endpoint is that table, looked up directly. It performs no calculation and takes no birth data: you tell it which lord and which house, and it returns the classical reading. Get the placements themselves from /api/astro/chart/ or /api/astro/chart_analysis/ and use this to caption them. `house` is the lord, named in the '-esha' form: lagnesha for the 1st lord through vyayesha for the 12th. `h2` is the house it occupies, named as a bare bhava: lagna, dhana, sahaja, sukha, mantra, ari, dara, randhra, bhagya, karma, labha, vyaya. Watch the sixth, which is 'shashthesha' as a lord but 'ari' as a house. Casing does not matter, and an unrecognised name returns HTTP 200 with an explanatory string.
