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

copyright: make repository REUSE compliant
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.

docs: consistent manpage SYNOPSIS
Make all libcurl related options use .nf (no fill) for the SYNOPSIS
section - for consistent look. roffit then renders that section using
<pre> (monospace font) in html for the website.

Extended manpage-syntax (test 1173) with a basic check for it.

man pages: switch to https://example.com URLs
Since HTTPS is "the new normal", this update changes a lot of man page
examples to use https://example.com instead of the previous "http://..."

terminology: call them null-terminated strings
Updated terminology in docs, comments and phrases to refer to C strings
as "null-terminated". Done to unify with how most other C oriented docs
refer of them and what users in general seem to prefer (based on a
single highly unscientific poll on twitter).
