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'

Brad Fitzpatrick 2434bc69fc util/syspolicy/{setting,ptype}: move PreferenceOption and Visibility to new leaf package
Step 3 in the series. See earlier cc532efc20 and d05e6dc09e.

This step moves some types into a new leaf "ptype" package out of the
big "settings" package. The policyclient.Client will later get new
methods to return those things (as well as Duration and Uint64, which
weren't done at the time of the earlier prototype).

Brad Fitzpatrick cc532efc20 util/syspolicy/*: move syspolicy keys to new const leaf "pkey" package
This is step 1 of ~3, breaking up #14720 into reviewable chunks, with
the aim to make syspolicy be a build-time configurable feature.

In this first (very noisy) step, all the syspolicy string key
constants move to a new constant-only (code-free) package. This will
make future steps more reviewable, without this movement noise.

There are no code or behavior changes here.

The future steps of this series can be seen in #14720: removing global
funcs from syspolicy resolution and using an interface that's plumbed
around instead. Then adding build tags.

Nick Khyl 4df02bbb48 util/syspolicy/setting: use a custom marshaler for time.Duration
jsonv2 now returns an error when you marshal or unmarshal a time.Duration
without an explicit format flag. This is an intentional, temporary choice until
the default [time.Duration] representation is decided (see golang/go#71631).

setting.Snapshot can hold time.Duration values inside a map[string]any,
so the jsonv2 update breaks marshaling. In this PR, we start using
a custom marshaler until that decision is made or golang/go#71664
lets us specify the format explicitly.

This fixes `tailscale syspolicy list` failing when KeyExpirationNotice
or any other time.Duration policy setting is configured.

Fixes #16683

Brad Fitzpatrick 265c76dbc5 all: unify some redundant testing.TB interface copies
I added yet another one in 6d117d64a2 but that new one is at the
best place int he dependency graph and has the best name, so let's use
that one for everything possible.

types/lazy can't use it for circular dependency reasons, so unexport
that copy at least.

all: statically enforce json/v2 interface satisfaction (#15154)
The json/v2 prototype is still in flux and the API can/will change.

Statically enforce that types implementing the v2 methods
satisfy the correct interface so that changes to the signature
can be statically detected by the compiler.

go.mod: bump github.com/go-json-experiment/json (#15010)
The upstream module has seen significant work making
the v1 emulation layer a high fidelity re-implementation
of v1 "encoding/json".

This addresses several upstream breaking changes:
* MarshalJSONV2 renamed as MarshalJSONTo
* UnmarshalJSONV2 renamed as UnmarshalJSONFrom
* Options argument removed from MarshalJSONV2
* Options argument removed from UnmarshalJSONV2

Nick Khyl 2a2228f97b util/syspolicy/setting: make setting.RawItem JSON-marshallable
We add setting.RawValue, a new type that facilitates unmarshalling JSON numbers and arrays
as uint64 and []string (instead of float64 and []any) for policy setting values.
We then use it to make setting.RawItem JSON-marshallable and update the tests.

Nick Khyl 2336c340c4 util/syspolicy: implement a syspolicy store that reads settings from environment variables
In this PR, we implement (but do not use yet, pending #13727 review) a syspolicy/source.Store
that reads policy settings from environment variables. It converts a CamelCase setting.Key,
such as AuthKey or ExitNodeID, to a SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE, TS_-prefixed environment
variable name, such as TS_AUTH_KEY and TS_EXIT_NODE_ID. It then looks up the variable
and attempts to parse it according to the expected value type. If the environment variable
is not set, the policy setting is considered not configured in this store (the syspolicy package
will still read it from other sources). Similarly, if the environment variable has an invalid value
for the setting type, it won't be used (though the reported/logged error will differ).

Nick Khyl aeb15dea30 util/syspolicy/source: add package for reading policy settings from external stores
We add package defining interfaces for policy stores, enabling creation of policy sources
and reading settings from them. It includes a Windows-specific PlatformPolicyStore for GP and MDM
policies stored in the Registry, and an in-memory TestStore for testing purposes.

We also include an internal package that tracks and reports policy usage metrics when a policy setting
is read from a store. Initially, it will be used only on Windows and Android, as macOS, iOS, and tvOS
report their own metrics. However, we plan to use it across all platforms eventually.
