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

The retry timer is reset before the first transfer attempt. Retries will be
done as usual (see --retry) as long as the timer has not reached this given
limit. Notice that if the timer has not reached the limit, the request will be
made and while performing, it may take longer than this given time period. To
limit a single request's maximum time, use --max-time. Set this option to
zero to not timeout retries.
