Support parsing `short_description` for Bankruptcy Multi Docket NEF
Sentry Issue: COURTLISTENER-6HZ
Not parsing description for Bankruptcy Multi Docket NEF for court 'paeb'
Related to parsing docket_entry.short_description for bankruptcy courts #912 . We have no method for parsing short descriptions when we deal with multi docket NEFs. I wrote a logger.error call for this and now we have some examples.

Taking advantage of the fact that we can upload images, I will document the problem with the multi dockets here
Usually, we extract the short_description from a NEF by splitting the email Subject using the docket's case name and number in various combinations. However, when we have more than 1 docket, we may have to try out different splits:
Uses 2nd docket's case name and docket number:
Uses 1st docket's number, but a partial case name
Uses 1st docket's number and case name
Uses 2nd docket's number, and partial case name
Looks like this might not be possible in a reliable way or like it just might not be worth it.
I think I found a good enough way, which is basically the old parsing inside a for loop and some extra checks. Doesn't break anything (from the tests). Can you review it? maybe it is good enough
@mlissner I created a new PR to address only multi dockets on njb.
Luckily, njb NEFs follow an easy format that only uses the case_name to split the short description from the subject
