Description

Split out of #3390.

If we were to codify the OF style
https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/tree/master/scripts/dev/style
https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/wiki/openFrameworks-Coding-style-guidelines
https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/wiki/oF-code-style

into a .clang-format file at the root of the repo, we could use ClangFormat to reformat selected code to the OF style.
