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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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.

They regress existing builds that depend on the paths/symbols generated
previously. Another approach will be needed to solve the name collision
problem they were intended to solve. Leave the error diagnostics for
the colliding cases that were added in the same topic as the above
commits because they provide a useful early failure in relevant cases.
Fixes#16209.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

A qrc_NAME.cpp file generated from NAME.qrc in the directory
CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR/SUBDIR
will be generated in the directory
CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR/TARGETNAME_automoc.dir/SUBDIR
Use cmSystemTools::GetCMakeRoot() which always knows the location of our
resources. Do not depend on CMAKE_ROOT because the user could unset it
from the cache.
In commit v3.2.0-rc1~480^2 (QtAutogen: Regenerate qrc files if their
input changes, 2014-09-17) we added use of the rcc `--list` option.
Prior to Qt 5.2 this option was called just `-list`. Run `rcc --help`
to check for support for `--list` before using it and otherwise fall
back to the `-list` option for compatibility with older versions.
This reverts commit 9a271e1323. The
`-list` option is not documented and may be removed in future Qt
versions. Fixing this correctly will require detecting the availability
of `--list` or `-list` based on the `rcc` version found. For now we
choose to support the documented option that will be supported in future
Qt versions.
