Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 11a1589223 tree-wide: drop license boilerplate
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.

I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.

<title>Description</title>
<para>The <filename>environment.d</filename> directories contain a list of "global" environment
variable assignments for the user environment.
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-environment-d-generator</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
parses them and updates the environment exported by the systemd user instance to the services it
starts.</para>
<para>It is recommended to use numerical prefixes for file names to simplify ordering.</para>
<para>For backwards compatibility, a symlink to <filename>/etc/environment</filename> is
installed, so this file is also parsed.</para>

<title>Configuration Format</title>
<para>The configuration files contain a list of
<literal><replaceable>KEY</replaceable>=<replaceable>VALUE</replaceable></literal> environment
variable assignments, separated by newlines. The right hand side of these assignments may
reference previously defined environment variables, using the <literal>${OTHER_KEY}</literal>
and <literal>$OTHER_KEY</literal> format. It is also possible to use
<literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>:-<replaceable>DEFAULT_VALUE</replaceable>}</literal>
to expand in the same way as <literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>}</literal> unless the
expansion would be empty, in which case it expands to <replaceable>DEFAULT_VALUE</replaceable>,
and use
<literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>:+<replaceable>ALTERNATE_VALUE</replaceable>}</literal>
to expand to <replaceable>ALTERNATE_VALUE</replaceable> as long as
<literal>${<replaceable>FOO</replaceable>}</literal> would have expanded to a non-empty value.
No other elements of shell syntax are supported.</para>
<para>Each <replaceable>KEY</replaceable> must be a valid variable name. Empty lines
and lines beginning with the comment character <literal>#</literal> are ignored.</para>
