Will Norris 3ec5be3f51 all: remove AUTHORS file and references to it
This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.

A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---

The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.

The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".

This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.

Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:

> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.

It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.

In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.

Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.

The source file changes were purely mechanical with:

    git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

Aaron Klotz 7c49cab1a6 clientupdate, util/osshare, util/winutil, version: improve Windows GUI filename resolution and WinUI build awareness
On Windows arm64 we are going to need to ship two different GUI builds;
one for Win10 (GOARCH=386) and one for Win11 (GOARCH=amd64, tags +=
winui). Due to quirks in MSI packaging, they cannot both share the
same filename. This requires some fixes in places where we have
hardcoded "tailscale-ipn" as the GUI filename.

We also do some cleanup in clientupdate to ensure that autoupdates
will continue to work correctly with the temporary "-winui" package
variant.

Fixes #17480

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.

Brad Fitzpatrick da8def8e13 all: remove old +build tags
The //go:build syntax was introduced in Go 1.17:

https://go.dev/doc/go1.17#build-lines

gofmt has kept the +build and go:build lines in sync since
then, but enough time has passed. Time to remove them.

Done with:

    perl -i -npe 's,^// \+build.*\n,,' $(git grep -l -F '+build')

Josh Bleecher Snyder 6da6d47a83 all: simplify build tags involving iOS
Prior to Go 1.16, iOS used GOOS=darwin,
so we had to distinguish macOS from iOS during GOARCH.

We now require Go 1.16 in our go.mod, so we can simplify.

Josh Bleecher Snyder a4e19f2233 version: remove rsc.io/goversion dependency
rsc.io/goversion is really expensive.
Running version.ReadExe on tailscaled on darwin
allocates 47k objects, almost 11mb.

All we want is the module info. For that, all we need to do
is scan through the binary looking for the magic start/end strings
and then grab the bytes in between them.

We can do that easily and quickly with nothing but a 64k buffer.

moncho e101d8396d portlist, version: update build tags for Go 1.16, Apple M1
Build tags have been updated to build native Apple M1 binaries, existing build
tags for ios have been changed from darwin,arm64 to ios,arm64.

With this change, running go build cmd/tailscale{,d}/tailscale{,d}.go on an Apple
machine with the new processor works and resulting binaries show the expected
architecture, e.g. tailscale: Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64.

Tested using go version go1.16beta1 darwin/arm64.

Brad Fitzpatrick 2072dcc127 version: revert the filepath change from earlier commit
f81233524f changed a use of package 'path' to 'filepath'.
Restore it back to 'path', with a comment.

Also, use the os.Executable-based fallback name in the case where the
binary itself doesn't have Go module information. That was overlooked in
the original code.

Avery Pennarun f81233524f version/cmdname: s/path/filepath/ and fix version.ReadExe() fallback.
We were using the Go 'path' module, which apparently doesn't handle
backslashes correctly. path/filepath does.

However, the main bug turned out to be that we were not calling .Base()
on the path if version.ReadExe() fails, which it seems to do at least
on Windows 7. As a result, our logfile persistence was not working on
Windows, and logids would be regenerated on every restart.

Affects: #620
