Passing the aggregation baton to Python

Construct an aggregation pipeline to collect, in reverse chronological order (i.e., descending year), prize documents for all original categories (that is, $in categories awarded in 1901). Project only the prize year and category (including document _id is fine).

The aggregation cursor will be fed to Python's itertools.groupby function to group prizes by year. For each year that at least one of the original prize categories was missing, a line with all missing categories for that year will be printed.
