1. Show problem with vars_ok() re lexicals declared outside sub def …

   NOTE: This patch is for research; it's not ready to be committed to
   master.
   
   In houseabsolute#44, it was
   argued that vars_ok() should have failed on a .pm file that simply
   declared three 'my' variables but never used them and never did anything
   else.  vars_ok() returns '1' (as do the previous invocations of
   vars_ok() in the test file) where we would have expected it to return a
   Perl-false value.
   
   This patch attempts to bring that observation into the test suite in the
   form of a TODO test.  However, we're hampered by the fact that the
   return value of vars_ok() is at best opaquely documented.  What we
   really need is a function along the lines of:
   
       vars_not_expected_to_be_ok('path/to/file');
