Add some comments that clarify that `StringRefNull` can be compared with
other `StringRefNull` and with `StringRef` instances.
Add unit tests that cover these cases.

Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.
Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses
- C/C++/objc/objc++
- Python
- Shell Scripts
- CMake, GNUmakefile
While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.
doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.
See P2788 for the script that automated these edits.

Ref D14069
Add three functions that trim characters from the front & end of a
`StringRef`. All functions return a new `StringRef` that references a
sub-string of the original `StringRef`.
- `trim(chars_to_remove)`: strips all characters from the start and end
that occur in `chars_to_remove`.
- `trim(char_to_remove)`: same, but with a single character to remove.
- `trim()`: remove leading & trailing whitespace, so same as
`trim(" \r\n\t")`

Previously, methods like `Span.drop_front` would crash when more
elements would be dropped than are available. While this is most
efficient, it is not very practical in some use cases. Also other languages
silently clamp the index, so one can easily write wrong code accidentally.
Now, `Span.drop_front` and similar methods will only crash when n
is negative. Too large values will be clamped down to their maximum
possible value. While this is slightly less efficient, I did not have a case
where this actually mattered yet. If it does matter in the future, we can
add a separate `*_unchecked` method.
This should not change the behavior of existing code.
Motivated by `std::string_view` being usable in
const (compile-time) context.
One functional change was needed for StringRef:
`std::char_traits<char>::length(str)` instead of `strlen`.

Since C++17 there is also std::string_view, which is similar to StringRef.
This commit does a couple of things:
* New implicit conversions between StringRef and std::string_view.
* Support std::string_view in blender::DefaultHash.
* Support most of the methods that std::string_view has.
* Add StringRef::not_found which can be used instead of -1 in some places.
* Improve/fix the description at the top of BLI_string_ref.hh.
