This adds a new node capability 'dns-subdomain-resolve' that signals
that all of hosts' subdomains should resolve to the same IP address.
It allows wildcard matching on any node marked with this capability.
This change also includes an util/dnsname utility function that lets
us access the parent of a full qualified domain name. MagicDNS takes
this function and recursively searchs for a matching real node name.
One important thing to observe is that, in this context, a subdomain
can have multiple sub labels. This means that for a given node named
machine, both my.machine and be.my.machine will be a positive match.

This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

In addition to checking the total hostname length, validate characters used in each DNS label and label length.

This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright
and license declaration. Notably, copyright no longer includes a date,
and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.
This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then
some minimal manual fixes.
Updates #6865

DNS names consist of labels, but outside of length limits, DNS
itself permits any content within the labels. Some records require
labels to conform to hostname limitations (which is what we implemented
before), but not all.

Consolidates the node display name logic from each of the clients into
tailcfg.Node. UI clients can use these names directly, rather than computing
them independently.
* show DNS name over hostname, removing domain's common MagicDNS suffix.
only show hostname if there's no DNS name.
but still show shared devices' MagicDNS FQDN.
* remove nerdy low-level details by default: endpoints, DERP relay,
public key. They're available in JSON mode still for those who need
them.
* only show endpoint or DERP relay when it's active with the goal of
making debugging easier. (so it's easier for users to understand
what's happening) The asterisks are gone.
* remove Tx/Rx numbers by default for idle peers; only show them when
there's traffic.
* include peers' owner login names
* add CLI option to not show peers (matching --self=true, --peers= also
defaults to true)
* sort by DNS/host name, not public key
* reorder columns
