No slur in CLI & Ap

Slur in FE (→GE,EE) 

The slur starting from the G-g octave was written by Chopin in FEcor, yet without determining the final point – in bar 29, which is already on a new line, there is no continuation of this slur. The ambiguity was carefully reproduced in FE (→EE2→EE3), while in GE (and EE4) a natural in this situation ending of the slur was added.
