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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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.

Clang complains about it:
error: second argument to 'va_arg' is of promotable type
'mode_t' (aka 'unsigned short'); this va_arg has undefined
behavior because arguments will be promoted to 'int'
[-Werror,-Wvarargs]
mode = va_arg(ap, mode_t);
^~~~~~
Work around the issue by passing int to va_arg() and casting
its return value to mode_t afterwards.

So far the NSS module looks up only hostnames as provided by
guests themselves. However, there are some cases where this is
not enough: e.g. when there's a fresh new guest being installed
(with some generic hostname) say from a live ISO image; or some
(older) systems don't advertise their hostname in DHCP
transactions at all.
In cases like that it would be helpful if we translate domain
name as seen by libvirt too so that users can:
# virsh start $dom && ssh $dom
In order to achieve that new libvirt-guest module is introduced,
while older libvirt module maintains its current behaviour (that
is translating guest provided names into IP addresses).

Problem with VIR_FREE() is that we are not linking
libvirt-utils.so to our mock libs therefore there will be an
unresolved symbol. Fortunately, nsstest that eventually links
with the nssmock links also with libvirt-utils.so and thus the
symbol is resolved after all. However, if one wants to run the
test binary under valgrind it is impossible to do so. Because of
the unresolved symbol.

* tools/nss/libvirt_nss.[ch]: add BSD-comptabile wrappers and
register via the nss_module_register() interface
* m4/virt-nss.m4: add checks if we're building NSS for FreeBSD
* tools/Makefile.am: handle target library name differences, as
Linux needs libnss_libvirt.so.2 and FreeBSD needs
nss_libvirt.so.1. Also, different syms files have to be used
as Linux needs to export all the methods while FreeBSD
only needs to have nss_module_register()
* tests/nsstest.c, tests/nssmock.c: s/__linux__/NSS/
* tests/nssmock.c: pass int instead of mode_t to va_arg() to please
gcc 4.8
* libvirt_nss_bsd.syms: FreeBSD syms file
