2021-06-10doc: remove obsolete `okSafeMode` RPC guideline from developer notesSebastian Falbesoner
Since the flag has been removed from the RPC command table in commit ec6902d0ea2bbe75179684fc71849d5e34647a14 (PR #11179), this guideline is not relevant anymore and can be removed.

2020-04-08doc: Clarify developer notes about constant namingRussell Yanofsky
I'm pretty sure developer notes were intended to say constants should be upper case and variables should be lower case, but right now they are ambiguous about whether to write: ```c++ // foo.h extern const int SYMBOL; // foo.cpp const int SYMBOL = 1; ``` or: ```c++ // foo.h extern const int g_symbol; // foo.cpp const int g_symbol = 1; ``` First convention above is better than the second convention because it tells you without having to look anything up that the value of `SYMBOL` will never change at runtime. Also I've never seen any c++ project anywhere using the second convention
