Various updates in todo.md
What prompted this update is a 'problem' I noticed in 2019/duble: it
leaves sockets lying round in the current working directory but it might
not be safe for make clobber to delete them: involves '.' files and we
don't know if the glob will be different in different systems. In macOS
it appears to be '^\.[A-Z].*' (which in commit
cfb9c66fae I made a mistake saying it
ended with '+*' which is obviously very wrong).
The README.md and bugs.md does show how to delete that pattern but it is
TBD if make clobber should do this.

- Check all Makefiles for notes / warnings on compilation and see if they can be

moved to _after_ the compilation as they're more likely to be seen this way. In

some cases this will have to be done in the Makefile via `|| :` (that might be

good to have in the Makefiles anyway so that additional rules / targets are

run) or else they'll have to be put above the compilation.

* Make compilation of targets use `|| :` in the Makefiles to allow

additional targets to compile and/or let warnings/notes be printed. An

important use of this is that some entries won't compile with clang due to

defects but the alternate version will. Whether this is a good idea is TBD
|

but it's noted here as a reminder to be discussed.
