Bug Description

More Subject massage.

Here are a few examples of subjects we can explode a little bit more.

Handbooks, manuals, etc.
--> delete the ", etc." part and create 2 new subjects: handbooks & manuals

Criticism, interpretation, etc
--> delete the ", etc" part (note there's no full stop on this one) and create 2 new subjects: criticism & interpretation

I noticed there are still some subjects around like this:

http://upstream.openlibrary.org/subjects/glossaries_vocabularies

Glossaries, vocabularies

Interestingly related to "Glossaries, vocabularies, etc" too :)

Can we split those up too?

As the link above shows, some subjects are still really complex. Might be better to wait until subject metadata is editable to address this issue.
