Make a pass updating copyright and authorship notices.
+ All copyright dates now declare yyyy-2017.
+ For LGPL files, use the current form of the license grant, with a
URL for the FSF, rather than a street address.
+ For files written by Zack Weinberg in 2017 with no other potential
copyright holders, use the CC0 public domain dedication rather than
Solar Designer's ad-hoc public domain dedication.
+ Add some form of copyright and license statement to the head of
every file, except libcrypt.map.in and libcrypt.minver (which are
tables of historical facts and therefore not copyrightable) and
test-*.c (I don't know enough about who wrote these and what their
intentions were).
+ Correct license grant for the files originally written by Thorsten
Kukuk from GPL (v2, only) to LGPL (v2.1, or later). This seems to
have been a mistake at the time the files were created. The
library-as-a-whole has always been described as LGPLed.
+ Make LICENSING a comprehensive short index: these files are LGPL,
these are 3-clause-BSD, these are public domain, etc., rather than
a laundry list of license grants that applied at one time to some
part of the library.
