This is mostly copy/pasting of existing support for Project Gutenberg, with a `s/[gG]utenberg/[rR]uneberg/` replacement, but some things have had additional adjustment (like the `download_options` HTML page). Fixes internetarchive#9983

Proposal
Project Runeberg is a project similar to Project Gutenberg, but with a focus on Nordic/Scandinavian authors and literature.
It would be great to have Runeberg used as a trusted book provider, similar to how Gutenberg is currently used.
Justification
Problem:
We want more web books in Open Library, and we also want more diversified, non-English literature. Project Runeberg provides us both! Similar to Project Gutenberg, Runeberg takes literature that has fallen into the public domain, gets scans of them, OCRs them, and then has humans do proof‐reading of the books. When the books have been prepared, they are published to the public, in the public domain.
Impact:
Idk. More books and more non-English literature in OL? :)
Research:
We already support Project Gutenberg. This should be pretty similar feature-wise.
