Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 11a1589223 tree-wide: drop license boilerplate
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.

<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>systemd-random-seed.service</filename> is a
service that restores the random seed of the system at early boot
and saves it at shutdown. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>random</refentrytitle><manvolnum>4</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for details. Saving/restoring the random seed across boots
increases the amount of available entropy early at boot. On disk
the random seed is stored in
<filename>/var/lib/systemd/random-seed</filename>.</para>
