Will Norris 236531c5fc ipn/ipnserver: always allow Windows SYSTEM user to connect
When establishing connections to the ipnserver, we validate that the
local user is allowed to connect.  If Tailscale is currently being
managed by a different user (primarily for multi-user Windows installs),
we don't allow the connection.

With the new device web UI, the inbound connection is coming from
tailscaled itself, which is often running as "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM".
In this case, we still want to allow the connection, even though it
doesn't match the user running the Tailscale GUI. The SYSTEM user has
full access to everything on the system anyway, so this doesn't escalate
privileges.

Eventually, we want the device web UI to run outside of the tailscaled
process, at which point this exception would probably not be needed.

Aaron Klotz fbc18410ad ipn/ipnauth: improve the Windows token administrator check
(*Token).IsAdministrator is supposed to return true even when the user is
running with a UAC limited token. The idea is that, for the purposes of
this check, we don't care whether the user is *currently* running with
full Admin rights, we just want to know whether the user can
*potentially* do so.

We accomplish this by querying for the token's "linked token," which
should be the fully-elevated variant, and checking its group memberships.

We also switch ipn/ipnserver/(*Server).connIsLocalAdmin to use the elevation
check to preserve those semantics for tailscale serve; I want the
IsAdministrator check to be used for less sensitive things like toggling
auto-update on and off.

Fixes #10036

Aaron Klotz 95671b71a6 ipn, safesocket: use Windows token in LocalAPI
On Windows, the idiomatic way to check access on a named pipe is for
the server to impersonate the client on its current OS thread, perform
access checks using the client's access token, and then revert the OS
thread's access token back to its true self.

The access token is a better representation of the client's rights than just
a username/userid check, as it represents the client's effective rights
at connection time, which might differ from their normal rights.

This patch updates safesocket to do the aforementioned impersonation,
extract the token handle, and then revert the impersonation. We retain
the token handle for the remaining duration of the connection (the token
continues to be valid even after we have reverted back to self).

Since the token is a property of the connection, I changed ipnauth to wrap
the concrete net.Conn to include the token. I then plumbed that change
through ipnlocal, ipnserver, and localapi as necessary.

I also added a PermitLocalAdmin flag to the localapi Handler which I intend
to use for controlling access to a few new localapi endpoints intended
for configuring auto-update.

Will Norris 71029cea2d all: update copyright and license headers
This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright
and license declaration.  Notably, copyright no longer includes a date,
and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.

This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then
some minimal manual fixes.
