Lennart Poettering 0c69794138 tree-wide: remove Lennart's copyright lines
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.

<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>sd-daemon.h</filename> provides APIs for new-style
daemons, as implemented by the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
service manager.</para>
<para>See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_listen_fds</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_booted</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_is_fifo</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_watchdog_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information about the functions implemented. In addition
to these functions, a couple of logging prefixes are defined as
macros:</para>
<programlisting>#define SD_EMERG "&lt;0&gt;" /* system is unusable */
#define SD_ALERT "&lt;1&gt;" /* action must be taken immediately */
#define SD_CRIT "&lt;2&gt;" /* critical conditions */
#define SD_ERR "&lt;3&gt;" /* error conditions */
#define SD_WARNING "&lt;4&gt;" /* warning conditions */
#define SD_NOTICE "&lt;5&gt;" /* normal but significant condition */
#define SD_INFO "&lt;6&gt;" /* informational */
#define SD_DEBUG "&lt;7&gt;" /* debug-level messages */</programlisting>
<para>These prefixes are intended to be used in conjunction with
stderr-based logging as implemented by systemd. If a systemd
service definition file is configured with
<varname>StandardError=journal</varname>,
<varname>StandardError=syslog</varname> or
<varname>StandardError=kmsg</varname>, these prefixes can be used
to encode a log level in lines printed. This is similar to the
kernel <function>printk()</function>-style logging. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>klogctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information.</para>
<para>The log levels are identical to
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
log level system. To use these prefixes simply prefix every line
with one of these strings. A line that is not prefixed will be
logged at the default log level SD_INFO.</para>
<example>
<title>Hello World</title>
<para>A daemon may log with the log level NOTICE by issuing this
call:</para>
<programlisting>fprintf(stderr, SD_NOTICE "Hello World!\n");</programlisting>
</example>
