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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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 9db3116226 Remove CMake-language block-end command arguments
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block.  This is no longer the preferred style.

Run the following shell code:

for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
    echo 's/\b'"$c"'\(\s*\)(.\+)/'"$c"'\1()/'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
egrep -z -v 'Tests/CMakeTests/While-Endwhile-' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed

Kitware Robot 77543bde41 Convert CMake-language commands to lower case
Ancient CMake versions required upper-case commands.  Later command
names became case-insensitive.  Now the preferred style is lower-case.

Run the following shell code:

cmake --help-command-list |
grep -v "cmake version" |
while read c; do
    echo 's/\b'"$(echo $c | tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]')"'\(\s*\)(/'"$c"'\1(/g'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed

Brad King 3a666595c9 Convert CMake non-find modules to BSD License
This adds copyright/license notification blocks CMake's non-find
modules.  Most of the modules had no notices at all.  Some had notices
referring to the BSD license already.  This commit normalizes existing
notices and adds missing notices.

Brad King fd47a2ae96 Drop old CMake "build settings" export/import
The CMakeExportBuildSettings and CMakeImportBuildSettings modules used
to export compiler paths and flags from one project and import them into
another.  The import process would force the settings on the including
project.

Forcing settings helped long ago when compiler ABIs changed frequently
but is now just a nuisance.  We've deemed the behavior harmful so this
commit simply removes it.  The modules and macros now error out if
included or called from a project that requires CMake 2.8 or higher.
