Brad King 86578eccf2 Simplify CMake per-source license notices
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool.  Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience.  Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.

Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices.  It also references version control
history for more precise information.  Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.

Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing".  The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.

Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically.  Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files.  Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.

Kitware Robot 7bbaa4283d Remove trailing whitespace from most CMake and C/C++ code
Our Git commit hooks disallow modification or addition of lines with
trailing whitespace.  Wipe out all remnants of trailing whitespace
everywhere except third-party code.

Run the following shell code:

git ls-files -z -- \
 bootstrap doxygen.config '*.readme' \
 '*.c' '*.cmake' '*.cpp' '*.cxx' \
 '*.el' '*.f' '*.f90' '*.h' '*.in' '*.in.l' '*.java' \
 '*.mm' '*.pike' '*.py' '*.txt' '*.vim' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/(kwsys|CursesDialog/form)/)' |
egrep -z -v '^(Modules/CPack\..*\.in)' |
xargs -0 sed -i 's/ \+$//'

Brad King 96afb12087 Convert CMake to OSI-approved BSD License
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License.  We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked.  We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.

Brad King 625ef26163 ENH: Allow most characters in ENV variable refs
The $ENV{VAR} syntax permits access to environment variables.  This
teaches CMake to recognize most characters in the VAR name since some
environments may have variables with non-C-identifier characters.
