Update chocolate cake files (2020/ferguson[12])
There were some things I wanted to reiterate and stress even more that are important notes about the cake. Of course the ferguson2 files are still encrypted with a specific key for the Enigma machine (one of the keys I provided in recode.md / recode.html but which is a challenge though probably pointless since it's also in ferguson1 unencrypted). Updated 2020/ferguson2/.gitignore: added data files specific to the encryption of the cake files so I can more easily fix it should I need to update the files under 2020/ferguson2 (unlikely as that might be).

they used to be one ounce each now they are 1/4 ounce each square so be sure to

* When the recipe was first written they sold powdered sugar in a box; now

it's confectioners sugar in a bag. My mum experimented with the amount and

found that 4 cups seems about right.
