[PATCH] sequencer: shut up clang warning

When comparing a value of type `enum todo_command` with a value that is outside the defined enum constants, clang greets the developer with this warning:

	comparison of constant 2 with expression of type
	'const enum todo_command' is always true

While this is arguably true *iff* the value was never cast from a free-form int, we should keep the cautious code in place.

To shut up clang, we simply introduce an otherwise pointless enum constant and compare against that.

Noticed by Torsten Bögershausen.

	Peff, if you would like me to include more of your commit message,
	please let me know.
	I will adjust the sequencer-i patches to keep the TODO_INVALID
	constant.
