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.

<para><command>systemd-udevd</command> listens to kernel uevents.
For every event, systemd-udevd executes matching instructions
specified in udev rules. See <citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>udev</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>.</para>
<para>The behavior of the daemon can be configured using
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>udev.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
its command line options, environment variables, and on the kernel
command line, or changed dynamically with <command>udevadm
control</command>.
