Add preview of 1984-2019

The 2020 winners are hinted it, but the source code is not there,
nor are the hints. Someone could look into the HTML and
see what was commented out, but that is not a problem because
WHO won is known and the name of their AWARD is known already.
Moreover a number of the winners have talked about what their
entirs do, so the commented out spoiler text is not a bit problem.

One will find HTML commented out with:

    <!-- XXX remove when 2020 is ready
    2020 links here
    XXX remove when 2020 is ready -->

The "XXX remove when 2020 is ready" string is found at the
start and end comment blocks.  Again, soneone could read
what was commented out, but that is OK since most of that
information is known or can be known.  The following files
have such HTML comment blocks in them.

    ./winners.html
    ./years-spoiler.html
    ./years.html

In addition, ./all/summary.txt was modified to not
include the 2020 entries for the momemt.

The 2020 winner code AND write-ups are NOT part of this set.

p.s. The all/all.tar.bz2 does not contain the 2020 source code (yet?).

<h1>The worst abuse of the C preprocessor</h1>
<p>Col. G. L. Sicherman</p>
<h2>Judges' comments:</h2>
<p>This program abuses the C preprocessor so much that some /lib/cpp&rsquo;s fail to
strip out all of the comments on the first pass! If you were able to
understand Decot&rsquo;s entry in 1984, you will have a head start on this
one.</p>
<p>Be sure to run this program through lint! If your lint works
correctly, it should warn you that the argument &lsquo;Manual&rsquo; isn&rsquo;t used.
Like the program says, what&rsquo;s that mean?</p>
<p>Run the program without arguments and enter the letters &lsquo;a&rsquo; thru &rsquo;m'
on a line. Now enter the letters &lsquo;n&rsquo; thru &lsquo;z&rsquo;. But to borrow a quote
from Richard Stallman: If you think you understand what this code
does, then you don&rsquo;t, so read it again! Explain why:</p>
<pre><code>sicherman &lt; sicherman.c | sicherman | diff - sicherman.c
</code></pre>
<p>results in diff reporting a difference on some machines.</p>

# The worst abuse of the C preprocessor
Col. G. L. Sicherman
## Judges' comments:
This program abuses the C preprocessor so much that some /lib/cpp's fail to
strip out all of the comments on the first pass! If you were able to
understand Decot's entry in 1984, you will have a head start on this
one.
Be sure to run this program through lint! If your lint works
correctly, it should warn you that the argument 'Manual' isn't used.
Like the program says, what's that mean?
Run the program without arguments and enter the letters 'a' thru 'm'
on a line. Now enter the letters 'n' thru 'z'. But to borrow a quote
from Richard Stallman: If you think you understand what this code
does, then you don't, so read it again! Explain why:
sicherman < sicherman.c | sicherman | diff - sicherman.c
results in diff reporting a difference on some machines.
