Avi Kivity fcb8d040e8 treewide: use Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) license identifiers
Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.

Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.

The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.

Closes #9937

// ~~ Definitions ~~
//
// Mergeable type is a type which has an associated "apply" binary operation (T x T -> T)
// which forms a commutative semigroup with instances of that type.
//
// ReversiblyMergeable type is a Mergeable type which has two binary operations associated,
// "apply_reversibly" and "revert", both working on objects of that type (T x T -> T x T)
// with the following properties:
//
// apply_reversibly(x, y) = (x', y')
// revert(x', y') = (x'', y'')
//
// x' = apply(x, y)
// x'' = x
// apply(x'', y'') = apply(x, y)
//
// Note that it is not guaranteed that y'' = y and the state of y' is unspecified.
//
// ~~ API ~~
//
// "apply_reversibly" and "revert" are usually implemented as instance methods or functions
// mutating both arguments to store the result of the operation in them.
//
// "revert" is not allowed to throw. If "apply_reversibly" throws the objects on which it operates
// are left in valid states, with guarantees the same as if a successful apply_reversibly() was
// followed by revert().
