Fix root cause that caused missing symbols when linking brotli
statically with e.g. binutils `ld` (and any other "picky" linker,
or "traditional" linker as CMake now calls them).
Also drop existing workaround that added brotli libs twice to the lib
list.

Breakage reproducible with curl-for-win config "`win-gcc`" and deleting
the `LDFLAGS+=' -Wl,--start-group'` line from its `curl.sh` script.
(Above line still required for some non-brotli cases, e.g. libssh2 and
zlib.)

Follow-up to 1e3319a167#10857Closes#13761
The package name passed to find_package_handle_standard_args (BROTLI)
does not match the name of the calling package (Brotli). This can lead
to problems in calling code that expects find_package result variables
(e.g., _FOUND) to follow a certain pattern.
Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/10471
- 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
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
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
regex whitelist for the files that don't need copyright headers.
Removed three (mostly usesless) README files from docs/
Closes#5141
Currently CMake cannot detect Brotli support. This adds detection of the
libraries and associated header files. It also adds this to the
generated config.
Closes#2392
