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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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

Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.
The command itself is owned by the cmMakefile class, but the
cmVariableWatch which holds a pointer to the cmVariableWatchCommand via
the client_data for the callback outlives the cmMakefile class in the Qt
GUI. This means that when the cmMakefile is destroyed, the variable
watch is still in effect, but with a stale pointer.
To fix this, each callback is now a separate entity completely and
doesn't rely on the command which spawned it at all.
An example CMakeLists.txt which demonstrates the issue (only displayed
in cmake-gui, so no tests can be written for it):
set(var 0)
variable_watch(var)
Replace the boolean value that indicates whether an argument is unquoted
or quoted with a generalized enumeration of possible argument types.
For now "Quoted" and "Unquoted" remain the only types.
Use makefile->IssueMessage() to print the unprocessed watch message in a
format consistent with other CMake messages and with a more complete
call stack for the access.
When a watch does not specify a command to call then variable_watch
prints out a message to stderr. Remove code after that which collects
all variable values to construct a message that is never printed.
Otherwise such code causes a READ_ACCESS watch to trigger on all
variables in the currents scope.

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.
