I'd gone with table_warn_overflow=overprint which seemed the closest
philosophical match, given what I infer of the meanings from the names.

Woot. :)

So, docs are now building without warnings at all, and with a warning
mode re-enabled, so we're closer to clean builds.

Unfortunately, the benefits of the compiler warning modes for
printf/scanf style arguments are sufficiently great that we just have to
accept that where Exim's string_printf uses characters differently to
modern standards, we get spurious warnings there. It would be nice to
have compiler #pragma directives to tune which expandos are interpreted
in those warnigns.
