Lennart Poettering 818bf54632 tree-wide: drop 'This file is part of systemd' blurb
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html

The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.

hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.

<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_machine_get_class()</function> may be used to
determine the class of a locally running virtual machine or
container that is registered with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
The string returned is either <literal>vm</literal> or
<literal>container</literal>. The returned string needs to be
freed with the libc <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use.</para>
<para><function>sd_machine_get_ifindices()</function> may be used
to determine the numeric indices of the network interfaces on the
host that are pointing towards the specified locally running
virtual machine or container that is registered with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-machined.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
The returned array needs to be freed with the libc <citerefentry
project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>free</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
call after use.</para>
</refsect1>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On
failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error
code.</para>

<title>Errors</title>
<para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>

<listitem><para>The specified machine does not exist or is currently not running.</para>
</listitem>
