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
Closes #10205

gitattributes: Set batch files to CRLF line endings on checkout
...
If a batch file is run without CRLF line endings (ie LF-only) then
arbitrary behavior may occur. I consider that a bug in Windows, however
the effects can be serious enough (eg unintended code executed) that
we're fixing it in the repo by requiring CRLF line endings for batch
files on checkout.
Prior to this change the checked-out line endings of batch files were
dependent on a user's git preferences. On Windows it is common for git
users to have automatic CRLF conversion enabled (core.autocrlf true),
but those users that don't would run into this behavior.
For example a user has reported running the Visual Studio project
generator batch file (projects/generate.bat) and it looped forever.
Output showed that the Windows OS interpreter was occasionally jumping
to arbitrary points in the batch file and executing commands. This
resulted in unintended files being removed (a removal sequence called)
and looping forever.
