`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`.

Fixes#15533Closes#15550
When linking with CoreFoundation, also link with CoreServices which is
apparently required to avoid an NSInvalidArgumentException in software
linking with libcurl on macOS Sonoma 14 and later.

- 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
