Format fix 1980s and 1990s README.md files

I also updated the todo.md file as I left some things out that have to
be done. I only explicitly named one thing but when I go over them as a
final pass I will address the things in question (some will require
discussion).

This year, the Grand Prize won a standing ovation at USENIX.
The "Strangest abuse of the rules" award was given this year to stress
the fact that starting in 1991, entries should be shell-specific.
The ["Strangest abuse of the rules"](1990/stig/README.md) award was given this
year to stress the fact that starting in 1991, entries should be shell-specific.
This year was the first year that we accepted ANSI C entries. It was
interesting to note that the ANSI C entries were as a whole less
portable than the K&R C entries. We hope that in future contests
people will enter more obfuscated and challenging ANSI C programs.

We would like to thank Barbara Frezza (loving wife of Larry Bassel) for
her role as official chef of the contest. Her opinions regarding
some of the contest entries were appreciated.
Rules and results were posted to comp.lang.c, comp.sources.unix, and
alt.sources. They have been made available on a wide number of Usenet
archive sites such as uunet.
