We've ifdef'd out the copyright strings for some time now. Go ahead and
remove the ifdefs. Plus whatever other detritis was left over from other
recent removals. These copyright strings are present in the comments and
are largely from CSRG's attempt at adding their copyright to every
binary file (which modern interpretations of the license doesn't
require).

Remove ancient SCCS tags from the tree, automated scripting, with two
minor fixup to keep things compiling. All the common forms in the tree
were removed with a perl script.

Since 59f256ec35 dmesg(8) will always skip first line of the message
buffer, cause it might be incomplete. The problem is that in most cases
it is complete, valid and contains the "---<<BOOT>>---" marker. This
skip can be disabled with '-a', but that would also unhide all non-kernel
messages. Move this functionality from dmesg(8) to kernel, since kernel
actually knows if wrap has happened or not.
The main motivation for the change is not actually the value of the
"---<<BOOT>>---" marker. The problem breaks unit tests, that clear
message buffer, perform a test and then check the message buffer for
a result. Example of such test is sys/kern/sonewconn_overflow.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

code can read the buffer via sysctl or from a core file. In the core file
case there will be no nulterm, and the code copes with that, but now in the
sysctl case there is a nulterm (there didn't used to be). The least
disruptive way to restore the old behavior (and eliminate a spurious '\000'
at the end of the output) is to remove the nulterm (by decrementing the
buffer length) in the sysctl case.
- When operating on a core file (-M) and -c is specified we don't clear
the message buffer of the running system.
- If we don't have permission to clear the buffer print the error message
only. That's what Linux does in this case, where this feature was ported
from, and it ensures that the error message doesn't get lost in the noise.

full, since that line is almost always incomplete. Make the parsing
of <%d> lines more strict.
Also simplify the logic a little:
- Start off by making the buffer linear so that we don't have to
deal with it wrapping around (suggested by bde).
- Process line by line rather than byte at a time.
with a new implementation that has a mostly reentrant "addchar"
routine, supports multiple message buffers in the kernel, and hides
the implementation details from callers.
The new code uses a kind of sequence number to represend the current
read and write positions in the buffer. This approach (suggested
mainly by bde) permits the read and write pointers to be maintained
separately, which reduces the number of atomic operations that are
required. The "mostly reentrant" above refers to the way that while
it is now always safe to have any number of concurrent writers,
readers could see the message buffer after a writer has advanced
the pointers but before it has witten the new character.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Fixed the following bugs:
- the buffer was reprinted endlessly when msg.bufx == 0 and (for a
different reason) when msg.bufx == 1.
- the last byte of the buffer wasn't printed except in the the infinite
loop cases.
- the comment about walking the buffer didn't match the (correct) code.
- minor -Wall and style bugs.
Not fixed:
- excessive newline processing which hid the non-printing of the last
byte of the buffer.
