Builds on #1950 (license trim); review only the last commit until that merges.

For every .sv file in src/:

  • Correct the filename line (about 20 were wrong or missing).
  • Written: original author(s), checked against git history (following renames and copies by hand where git --follow was misled by identical license text). Every author has a name, not just an email. Existing authors are kept where history predates the January 2021 import.
  • Modified: people who made functional changes to that file; whitespace, comment, lint, rename, and tree-wide mechanical commits don't count.
  • Purpose: one clear sentence, with important caveats (unsupported features, spec references) kept on the following lines.
  • Copyright: <creation year>-27 Harvey Mudd College & Oklahoma State University.
  • Five files still carried MIT license text, all copyrighted by HMC/OSU and written by Wally contributors; they now use the project SPDX identifier.

Header comments only; no code changes. Files deleted in #1952 are left untouched here to avoid conflicts.

The LICENSE file holds the full Solderpad/Apache text. File headers now
keep only the copyright line and the SPDX-License-Identifier line.

Fix filename lines, give every author a name, check Written against git
history, list contributors of functional changes under Modified, rewrite
Purpose as one sentence, and set copyright to <creation year>-27. Replace
the remaining MIT license text, all on HMC/OSU-copyrighted files, with the
SPDX identifier.
