These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
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.
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.

I think the relevant part of C99 is 6.7.2.2 Enumeration specifiers:
Each enumerated type shall be compatible with char, a signed integer type, or
an unsigned integer type. The choice of type is implementation-defined, but
shall be capable of representing the values of all the members of the
enumeration.
and 7.16.1.4:
The parameter parmN is the identifier of the rightmost parameter in the
variable parameter list in the function definition (the one just before the
...). If the parameter parmN is declared with the register storage class, with
a function or array type, or with a type that is not compatible with the type
that results after application of the default argument promotions, the behavior
is undefined.
This might cause a real issue if the compiler chooses something that is not an
integer for ExtractFlags. Rework the code to avoid the warning, but add an
assert_cc in a large-valued ExtractFlags element is ever defined and the type
is bumped to something wider than an int.
3d793d2905 broke parsing of unit file
names that include backslashes, as extract_first_word() strips those.
Fix this, by introducing a new EXTRACT_RETAIN_ESCAPE flag which disables
looking at any flags, thus being compatible with the classic
FOREACH_WORD() behaviour.
