Title: 04-loop.md: Fill in FIXME challenge titles

Naming the last challenge is difficult, because it's not really about
loops. That challenge dates back to 8e77786c (Importing shell lesson
for novices, 2013-11-11), which doesn't explain the pedagogical
motivation for the challenge. Maybe it's just a trick to keep
students from being to focused on the purported topic when crafting
their answers? Maybe it's intentionally a throwback to more basic
shell syntax couched in the decoration of the current topic? Maybe
it's a hint that you can do more with loops than vary arguments to a
single command? In any event, I'd prefer removing this challenge
entirely, or reworking the content as an example (instead of a
challenge).
