except_regex argument for todo_comment_linter() to skip valid TODO comments

Based against #2438.

Closes #2047

[AshesITR]

Enable it for us? (Follow up is fine)

Hmm that blew up. Let me know if anything here should be split into its own PR.

Seems manageable to me. The comment fixes will probably be easy to review.
Maybe split off the xml_find_int() parts? Test failures seem to indicate that the migration is non-trivial.

g2g, btw, as long as there's no conflicts merge commits don't invalidate reviews. a bit hard to forecast which will cause conflicts OTOH.
