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
-- curl version=[7.81.0-DEV]
CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/cmake-3.22.1/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:438 (message):
The package name passed to `find_package_handle_standard_args` (MBEDTLS)
does not match the name of the calling package (MbedTLS). This can lead to
problems in calling code that expects `find_package` result variables
(e.g., `_FOUND`) to follow a certain pattern.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
deps/curl/CMake/FindMbedTLS.cmake:31 (find_package_handle_standard_args)
deps/curl/CMakeLists.txt:473 (find_package)
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
Closes#8207
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
