This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
When I see "test", I have to think three times what the return value
means. With "below" this is immediately clear. ratelimit_below(&limit)
sounds almost like English and is imho immediately obvious.
(I also considered ratelimit_ok, but this strongly implies that being under the
limit is somehow better. Most of the times this is true, but then we use the
ratelimit to detect triple-c-a-d, and "ok" doesn't fit so well there.)

Previously we were a bit sloppy with the index and size types of arrays,
we'd regularly use unsigned. While I don't think this ever resulted in
real issues I think we should be more careful there and follow a
stricter regime: unless there's a strong reason not to use size_t for
array sizes and indexes, size_t it should be. Any allocations we do
ultimately will use size_t anyway, and converting forth and back between
unsigned and size_t will always be a source of problems.
Note that on 32bit machines "unsigned" and "size_t" are equivalent, and
on 64bit machines our arrays shouldn't grow that large anyway, and if
they do we have a problem, however that kind of overly large allocation
we have protections for usually, but for overflows we do not have that
so much, hence let's add it.
So yeah, it's a story of the current code being already "good enough",
but I think some extra type hygiene is better.
This patch tries to be comprehensive, but it probably isn't and I missed
a few cases. But I guess we can cover that later as we notice it. Among
smaller fixes, this changes:
1. strv_length()' return type becomes size_t
2. the unit file changes array size becomes size_t
3. DNS answer and query array sizes become size_t

Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
As discussed in RFC 6762, Section 8.2 a race condition may
happen when two hosts are probing for the same name simultaniously.
Detect and handle such race conditions.
According to p5.3 of RFC6762 (Multicast DNS) one mDNS query message
can contain more than one question sections.
Generate answers for all found questions and put them to a reply
message.
This might very well happen due to races between joining multicast
groups and network configuration and such, let's not complain, but just
drop the messages at debug level.
Fixes: #7527
Previously, `SO_REUSEADDR` is set before `bind`-ing socket, Thus,
even if another mDNS stack (e.g. avahi) is running, `bind` always
success and we cannot detect the other stack.
By this commit, we first try to `bind` without `SO_REUSEADDR`,
and if it fails, show warning and retry with `SO_REUSEADDR`.
This restores behaviour of 53fda2bb933694c9bdb1bbf1f5583e39673b74b2: for
mDNS (and mDNS only) we'll match replies to transactions honouring ANY
matches.
We don't actually make use of the return value for now, but it matches
our coding style elsewhere, and it actually shortens our code quite a
bit.
Also, add a missing OOM check after dns_answer_new().
By default all sent multicast packets are looped back to the
sending host. And since the code that adds the mDNS socket to
the mDNS multicast group is the same as for LLMNR I decided
that for now it'd be safer to filter looped back packets in the
application than to switch loopback off. Because I don't know
what would be the implications for LLMNR with loopback switched off.
I suspect that loopback can be disabled for LLMNR safely too and the
function manager_our_packet() is not really needed. But I'd
prefer to do it in another patchset.

networkd previously knew an enum "ResolveSupport" for configuring
per-interface LLMNR support, resolved had a similar enum just called
"Support", with the same value and similar pasers.
Unify this, call the enum ResolveSupport, and port both daemons to it.
When storing negative responses, clamp the SOA minimum TTL (as suggested
by RFC2308) to the TTL of the NSEC/NSEC3 RRs we used to prove
non-existance, if it there is any.
This is necessary since otherwise an attacker might put together a faked
negative response for one of our question including a high-ttl SOA RR
for any parent zone, and we'd use trust the TTL.
This large patch adds a couple of mechanisms to ensure we get NSEC3 and
proof-of-unsigned support into place. Specifically:
- Each item in an DnsAnswer gets two bit flags now:
DNS_ANSWER_AUTHENTICATED and DNS_ANSWER_CACHEABLE. The former is
necessary since DNS responses might contain signed as well as unsigned
RRsets in one, and we need to remember which ones are signed and which
ones aren't. The latter is necessary, since not we need to keep track
which RRsets may be cached and which ones may not be, even while
manipulating DnsAnswer objects.
- The .n_answer_cachable of DnsTransaction is dropped now (it used to
store how many of the first DnsAnswer entries are cachable), and
replaced by the DNS_ANSWER_CACHABLE flag instead.
- NSEC3 proofs are implemented now (lacking support for the wildcard
part, to be added in a later commit).
- Support for the "AD" bit has been dropped. It's unsafe, and now that
we have end-to-end authentication we don't need it anymore.
- An auxiliary DnsTransaction of a DnsTransactions is now kept around as
least as long as the latter stays around. We no longer remove the
auxiliary DnsTransaction as soon as it completed. THis is necessary,
as we now are interested not only in the RRsets it acquired but also
in its authentication status.
Add the packet dispatching routine for mDNS.
It differs to what LLMNR and DNS dispatchers do in the way it matches
incoming packets. In mDNS, we actually handle all incoming packets,
regardless whether we asked for them earlier or not.
