TODO.md: track the stale ondrej/php RSA-1024 key warning as an open item

Researched first - Launchpad-wide re-signing artifact, not a live
compromise or maintainer issue. Low-priority cosmetic fix, not applied
yet: re-add the PPA to pick up the current RSA-4096 key.

- [ ] **Stale RSA-1024 signing-key warning from the `ondrej/php` PPA** — found 2026-07-26
`apt update` on alpha prints: "Signature by key
14AA40EC0831756756D7F66C4F4EA0AAE5267A6C uses weak algorithm
(rsa1024)" for `ppa:ondrej/php`. Researched before acting rather
than assuming the PPA itself is compromised or poorly run: this is
a **Launchpad-platform-wide** artifact, not specific to Ondřej
Surý (a long-established Debian Developer maintaining PHP
packaging since PHP 5) or this PPA - Launchpad signed *all* PPAs
with one RSA-1024 key since 2009, and newer apt versions (shipped
in noble) only just started warning about it everywhere. Launchpad
finished re-signing every affected PPA with RSA-4096 by August
2024 (confirmed via Launchpad's own answers/support tracker); the
warning persists here only because apt's local keyring still has
the *old* cached key. No evidence of any compromise or malware
incident tied to this PPA.
**Fix, not yet applied**: remove and re-add the PPA
(`sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:ondrej/php && sudo
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php`) to force-fetch the current
RSA-4096 key and clear the warning. Purely cosmetic/stale-cache,
not an active security exposure, so low priority - but worth doing
next time other apt maintenance is being done on alpha. Also
update `SETUP.md`'s `ondrej/php` note (currently just says "check
the `Suites:` line") to mention this exact warning and fix.
