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'

go.mod: bump gorilla/csrf for security fix (#14822)
For 9dd6af1f6d

Update client/web and safeweb to correctly signal to the csrf middleware
whether the request is being served over TLS. This determines whether
Origin and Referer header checks are strictly enforced. The gorilla
library previously did not enforce these checks due to a logic bug based
on erroneous use of the net/http.Request API. The patch to fix this also
inverts the library behavior to presume that every request is being
served over TLS, necessitating these changes.

safeweb: add support for custom CSP (#13975)
To allow more flexibility with CSPs, add a fully customizable `CSP` type
that can be provided in `Config` and encodes itself into the correct
format. Preserve the `CSPAllowInlineStyles` option as is today, but
maybe that'll get deprecated later in favor of the new CSP field.

In particular, this allows for pages loading external JS, or inline JS
with nonces or hashes (see
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Security-Policy/script-src#unsafe_inline_script)

HTTP to HTTPS redirects by moving the call to http.Serve into safeweb.
This makes linting for other uses of http.Serve easier without having to

If both are non-wildcard matches, there is a pattern overlap, so return

safeweb: init (#11467)
Updates https://github.com/tailscale/corp/issues/8027

Safeweb is a wrapper around http.Server & tsnet that encodes some
application security defaults.

Safeweb asks developers to split their HTTP routes into two
http.ServeMuxs for serving browser and API-facing endpoints
repsectively. It then wraps these HTTP routes with the
context-appropriate security controls.

safeweb.Server#Serve will serve the HTTP muxes over the provided
listener. Caller are responsible for creating and tearing down their
application's listeners. Applications being served over HTTPS that wish
to implement HTTP redirects can use the Server#HTTPRedirect handler to
do so.
