checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
This function no longer returns a negative value if the formatting
string is bad since the return value would sometimes be propagated as a
return code from the mprintf* functions and they are documented to
return the length of the output. Which cannot be negative.

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
In order to check the actual code better, checksrc now ignores
everything that look like preprocessor instructions. It also means
that code in macros are now longer checked.
Note that some rules then still don't need to be followed when code is
exactly below a cpp instruction.
Removes two checksrc exceptions we needed previously because of
preprocessor lines being checked.

Stack overflows can occur with precisions for integers and floats.
Proof of concepts:
- curl_mprintf("%d, %.*1$d", 500, 1);
- curl_mprintf("%d, %+0500.*1$f", 500, 1);
Ideally, compile with -fsanitize=address which makes this undefined
behavior a bit more defined for debug purposes.
The format strings are valid. The overflows occur due to invalid
arguments. If these arguments are variables with contents controlled
by an attacker, the function's stack can be corrupted.
Also see CVE-2016-9586 which partially fixed the float aspect.

Closes https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/5722
Windows does not allow setting the locale with environment variables (as
the test attempted to do), so the test failed when run with a user
locale that has a comma as radixchar. Changed the test to call
setlocale() explicitly to ensure that a known working locale is set even
on Windows.
Prior to this change a width arg could be erroneously output, and also
width and precision args could not be used together without crashing.

Following commit 0aafd77fa4, replaced the internal usage of
FORMAT_OFF_T and FORMAT_OFF_TU with the external versions that we
expect API programmers to use.
This negates the need for separate definitions which were subtly
different under different platforms/compilers.

intermixed commits, while renamed, and also by at least one

All C and H files now (should) feature the proper project curl source
code header, which includes basic info, a copyright statement and some
basic disclaimers.
