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
copyright.pl to the changes.

docs: consistent manpage SYNOPSIS
Make all libcurl related options use .nf (no fill) for the SYNOPSIS
section - for consistent look. roffit then renders that section using
<pre> (monospace font) in html for the website.

Extended manpage-syntax (test 1173) with a basic check for it.

opts docs: unify phrasing in NAME header
- avoid writing "set ..." or "enable/disable ..." or "specify ..."
  *All* options for curl_easy_setopt() are about setting or enabling
  things and most of the existing options didn't use that way of
  description.

- start with lowercase letter, unless abbreviation. For consistency.

- Some additional touch-ups

http: limit the initial send amount to used upload buffer size
Previously this logic would cap the send to CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE bytes,
but for the situations where a larger upload buffer has been set, this
function can benefit from sending more bytes. With default size used,
this does the same as before.

Also changed the storage of the size to an 'unsigned int' as it is not
allowed to be set larger than 2M.

Also added cautions to the man pages about changing buffer sizes in
run-time.
