Cody Boone Ferguson 227f02a65f Fixes in 2019/ciura + update to bugs.md
Fixed scripts to use LC_ALL=C. This was necessary especially for de.sh
as the tr invocation had invalid bytes. Similar requirement was in
getwords.sh. But since I changed the one I decided to change the others
too.

I note that both before and after the fix the alternative languages do
not work under macOS or fedora linux. I don't know if this is the wrong
locale (the author does suggest UTF-8) or the dictionary or something
else but I noted it anyway.

I added this latter problem to bugs.md. Whilst at it I added some notes
and fixes to bugs.md.

Landon Curt Noll c0663537cb 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?).
