remove copyright from man/*.x ?

[Bernhard Voelker]

Only 6 out of the 105 man/*.x files have a copyright notice:

  $ git ls-files -- man/*.x | wc -l
  105

  $ GIT_PAGER= git grep Copyright -- man/*.x
  man/chmod.x:'\" Copyright (C) 1998-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  man/chown.x:'\" Copyright (C) 1998-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  man/df.x:'\" Copyright (C) 1998-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  man/du.x:'\" Copyright (C) 1998-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  man/rm.x:'\" Copyright (C) 1998-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
  man/stdbuf.x:'\" Copyright (C) 2009-2015 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

The following patch would remove it from there.  Okay?

Alternatively, we could add such a Copyright notice to all the other
man/*.x files ... but with what Copyright year range?

Have a nice day,
Berny
