Fix new issues found by `proselint`.
Also:
- silence this technical warning:
```
:0: DeprecationWarning: /home/runner/.proselintrc was found instead of a JSON file. Rename to /home/runner/.proselintrc.json.
```
- fix an input filename.
`proselints` fails now if an input file is missing.

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
We're mostly saying just "curl" in lower case these days so here's a big
cleanup to adapt to this reality. A few instances are left as the
project could still formally be considered called cURL.
