6d9f1725db license: relicense "shared/nm-std-aux/nm-dbus-compat.h" under LGPL-2.1+
"nm-dbus-compat.h" was GPL licensed. That is a problem, because we use it from
libnm (which is LGPL).

The history of this file in NetworkManager source tree:

  $ git shortlog -n -s e055bdbbc3 -- shared/nm-std-aux/nm-dbus-compat.h include/nm-dbus-compat.h shared/nm-dbus-compat.h

Note that commit dd0e198955 ('include: add nm-dbus-compat.h')
introduced this file from dbus sources ([1]). Hence, originally
the file is (like all of dbus sources) dual-licensed under GPL-2.0+
and Academic Free License 2.1 (AFL-2.1). That makes it problematic to
change the license of this file to LGPL also because of the old history
of the file.

Instead, drop everything from the header except the bits that we
actually use. I claim the remainder is trivial and only contains
defines for documented D-Bus API. I don't think that the remainder
is copyrightable and hence get rid of the copy-right notice and the
GPL license.

c0e075c902 all: drop emacs file variables from source files
We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.

Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.

No manual changes, just ran commands:

    F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
    sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*-  *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }'     -i "${F[@]}"
    sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"

Check remaining lines with:

    git grep -e '-\*-'

The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.

87f7e6844d shared: move "nm-dbus-compat.h" header to "nm-std-aux/nm-dbus-compat.h"

0a6f21fb8d shared: split C-only helper "shared/nm-std-aux" utils out of "shared/nm-utils"
"shared/nm-utils" contains general purpose utility functions that only
depend on glib (and extend glib with some helper functions).

We will also add code that does not use glib, hence it would be good
if the part of "shared/nm-utils" that does not depend on glib, could be
used by these future projects.

Also, we use the term "utils" everywhere. While that covers the purpose
and content well, having everything called "nm-something-utils" is not
great. Instead, call this "nm-std-aux", inspired by "c-util/c-stdaux".

(cherry picked from commit b434b9ec07)
