Case contract

Arbitrage finder. books rows are [bookmaker, outcome, decimal price]. For each outcome take the highest price; ties go to the alphabetically first bookmaker. S = sum of 1/best price. If S >= 1 return ["no arb"]. Otherwise stake_i = floor(total * (1/d_i) / S) cents; guaranteed return = min over outcomes of floor(stake_i * d_i). Return ["arb", [[outcome, bookmaker, stake] sorted by outcome], guaranteed return - sum of stakes].
