`libcurl.pc` `Libs.private` (since 8.11.0, and in `Libs` before 7.20.0)
and `curl-config` `--static-libs` (since 7.17.1, and in `Libs` between
7.7.2-7.25.0). This included all flags inherited from the environment,
in addition to those coming from dependency detections.
To avoid spilling all linker flags inherited from the environment to
the libcurl config files, this patch omits them all, except `-L`, `-F`,
`--library-path=` and `-framework` options, which are still passed.
The rationale for the exceptions is that `LIBS` is passed as-is, and
`LDFLAGS`, `LIBS` are the canonical way to pass custom libs options
to a build. `LIBS` may not work without a matching custom libpath.
This brings autotools behaviour closer to cmake, and `curl-config`
closer to `libcurl.pc`.

`nettle` is a direct dependency of curl, when building with GnuTLS.
Add a new `Find` module to detect it.
Also:
- GHA/macos: drop `nettle` hack no longer necessary.
- add `nettle` to `libcurl.pc`.
- also add `nettle` to `libcurl.pc` in autotools builds.

- cmake: populate for dependencies.
- autotools: populate for dependencies.
(including mbedtls, though the script does not detect
mbedtls through pkgconfig. mbedtls 3.6.0 now supports it.)
Skip dealing with gssapi in this patch.

Most importantly perhaps is when using OpenSSL that the used
build/flavor has the QUIC API: the vanilla OpenSSL does not, only
BoringSSL, libressl, AWS-LC and quictls do.

- 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
Closes#10205
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.
Closes#8869
