Potential issue with duplicated verses in references #169

Thanks again for this, I'm getting a lot of use :)

I found another potential issue. When a set of text has repeating references, they are grouped by book, but it seems not by chapter or verse. Meaning that the formatted output has duplicate verses. Here's an example, notice the refs for John and Hebrews for dupe verses, and Genesis for dupe chapter. I added a dupe remove on the verse id's to get the output I was expecting:

import pythonbible as bible

text ='Jeremiah 10:11-12;John 1:1;Hebrews 1:8-12;Genesis 1:1,2:4,2:7;Malachi 3:18;John 1:1;Psalms 33:6,9,136:5;John 1:1-3;Colossians 1:16-17;Hebrews 1:8-10,11:3'

references = bible.get_references(text)
formatted = bible.format_scripture_references(references)

print(formatted)

# list and set to remove dups
verse_ids = list(set(bible.convert_references_to_verse_ids(references)))

new_references = bible.convert_verse_ids_to_references(verse_ids)
formatted_2 = bible.format_scripture_references(new_references)

print(formatted_2)

output:

# initial output
Genesis 1:1,2:4,2:7;Psalms 33:6,9,136:5;Jeremiah 10:11-12;Malachi 3:18;John 1:1,1,1-3;Colossians 1:16-17;Hebrews 1:8,8-9,9-10,10-12,11:3

# with dupes manually removed list(set(...)) on verse_ids
Genesis 1:1,2:4,2:7;Psalms 33:6,9,136:5;Jeremiah 10:11-12;Malachi 3:18;John 1:1-3;Colossians 1:16-17;Hebrews 1:8-12,11:3
