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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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

All of the ones being removed are pulled in by internal.h. The only
exception is sanlock which expects the application to include <stdint.h>
before sanlock's headers, because sanlock prototypes use fixed width
int, but they don't include stdint.h themselves, so we have to leave
that one in place.

Since there's going to be a worker thread which needs to have some data
protected by a lock, the whole code would just simply get unnecessary
complex, since two sets of locks would be necessary, driver lock (for
udev monitor and event handle) and a mutex protecting thread-local data.
Given the future thread will need to access the udev monitor socket as
well, why not protect everything with a single lock, even better, by
converting the driver's private data to a lockable object, we get the
automatic object disposal feature for free.

This patch removes the explicit FSF address, and uses above instead
(of course, with inserting 'Lesser' before 'General').
Except a bunch of files for security driver, all others are changed
automatically, the copyright for securify files are not complete,
that's why to do it manually:
src/security/security_selinux.h
src/security/security_driver.h
src/security/security_selinux.c
src/security/security_apparmor.h
src/security/security_apparmor.c
src/security/security_driver.c
This fixes a segfault when the event handler is called after shutdown
when the global driver state is NULL again.
Also fix a locking issue in an error path.
* configure.in: add new --with-udev, disabled by default, and requiring
libudev > 145
* src/node_device/node_device_udev.c src/node_device/node_device_udev.h:
the new node device backend
* src/node_device/node_device_linux_sysfs.c: moved node_device_hal_linux.c
to a better file name
* src/conf/node_device_conf.c src/conf/node_device_conf.h: add a couple
of fields in node device definitions, and an API to look them up,
remove a couple of unused fields from previous patch.
* src/node_device/node_device_driver.c src/node_device/node_device_driver.h:
plug the new driver
* po/POTFILES.in src/Makefile.am src/libvirt_private.syms: add the new
files and symbols
* src/util/util.h src/util/util.c: add a new convenience macro
virBuildPath and virBuildPathInternal() function
