In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

Hypervisor drivers (e.g. QEMU) assume that they run in a separate
thread from the main event loop thread otherwise deadlocks can
occur. Therefore let's report an error if max_workers < 1 is set in
the libvirtd configuration file.

Having a daemon/ directory makes little sense from a code structure
point of view, as 90% of the code that is built into libvirtd already
lives in the src/ directory. The virtlockd and virlogd daemons also live
entirely in src/{locking,logging} directories. This moves the source
code for libvirtd into src/remote/, alongside the client code.
