lib: let the max filesize option stop too big transfers too
Previously it would only stop them from getting started if the size is
known to be too big then.

Update the libcurl and curl docs accordingly.

copyright: update all copyright lines and remove year ranges
- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING

checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements

copyright: make repository REUSE compliant
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.

This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts

9a6f974881 docs: change max-filesize caveat again
- Add protocols field to max-filesize.d.

- Revert wording on unknown file size caveat and do not discuss specific
  protocols in that section.

Partial revert of ecf0225. All max-filesize options now have the list of
protocols and it's clearer just to have that list without discussing
specific protocols in the caveat.

ecf0225461 docs: mention max-filesize options also apply to MQTT transfers
Also make it clearer that the caveat 'if the file size is unknown it
the option will have no effect' may apply to protocols other than FTP
and HTTP.
