Lennart Poettering 0c69794138 tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright lines
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary.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.

<title>Description</title>
<para><command>shutdown</command> may be used to halt, power-off
or reboot the machine.</para>
<para>The first argument may be a time string (which is usually
<literal>now</literal>). Optionally, this may be followed by a
wall message to be sent to all logged-in users before going
down.</para>
<para>The time string may either be in the format
<literal>hh:mm</literal> for hour/minutes specifying the time to
execute the shutdown at, specified in 24h clock format.
Alternatively it may be in the syntax <literal>+m</literal>
referring to the specified number of minutes m from now.
<literal>now</literal> is an alias for <literal>+0</literal>, i.e.
for triggering an immediate shutdown. If no time argument is
specified, <literal>+1</literal> is implied.</para>
<para>Note that to specify a wall message you must specify a time
argument, too.</para>
<para>If the time argument is used, 5 minutes before the system
goes down the <filename>/run/nologin</filename> file is created to
ensure that further logins shall not be allowed.</para>
