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'

tsnet users can now provide a tun.Device, including any custom
implementation that conforms to the interface.
netstack has a new option CheckLocalTransportEndpoints that when used
alongside a TUN enables netstack listens and dials to correctly capture
traffic associated with those sockets. tsnet with a TUN sets this
option, while all other builds leave this at false to preserve existing
performance.

This change allows tsnet nodes to act as Service hosts by adding a new
function, tsnet.Server.ListenService. Invoking this function will
advertise the node as a host for the Service and create a listener to
receive traffic for the Service.

Previously the funnel listener would leave artifacts in the serve
config. This caused weird out-of-sync effects like the admin panel
showing that funnel was enabled for a node, but the node rejecting
packets because the listener was closed.
This change resolves these synchronization issues by ensuring that
funnel listeners clean up the serve config when closed.

This adds a new ListenPacket function on tsnet.Server
which acts mostly like `net.ListenPacket`.
Unlike `Server.Listen`, this requires listening on a
specific IP and does not automatically listen on both
V4 and V6 addresses of the Server when the IP is unspecified.
To test this, it also adds UDP support to tsdial.Dialer.UserDial
and plumbs it through the localapi. Then an associated test
to make sure the UDP functionality works from both sides.

This adds a new `UserLogf` field to the `Server` struct.
When set this any logs generated by Server are logged using
`UserLogf` and all spammy backend logs are logged to `Logf`.
If it `UserLogf` is unset, we default to `log.Printf` and
if `Logf` is unset we discard all the spammy logs.

Application code can call the tsnet s.CapturePcap(filename) method
to write all packets, sent and received, to a pcap file. The cleartext
packets are written, outside the Wireguard tunnel. This is expected
to be useful for debugging.

Terminating traffic to IPs which are not the native IPs of the node requires
the netstack subsystem to intercept trafic to an IP it does not consider local.
This PR switches on such interception. In addition to supporting such termination,
this change will also enable exit nodes and subnet routers when running in
userspace mode.

For the app connector use-case, it doesnt make sense to use listeners, because then you would
need to register thousands of listeners (for each proto/service/port combo) to handle ranges.
Instead, we plumb through the TCPHandlerForFlow abstraction, to avoid using the listeners
abstraction that would end up being a bit messy.

Some languages do not give you any useful access to the sockets
underlying their networking packages. E.g. java.net.http.HttpClient
provides no official access to its dialing logic.
...but everyone supports proxies. So add a SOCKS5 proxy on the listener
we are already running.
(The function being revamped is very new,
I only added it in the last week and it wasn't part of any release,
so I believe it is fine to redo its function signature.)

No ListenPacket support yet, but Listen with a udp network type fit
easier into netstack's model to start.
Then added an example of using it to cmd/sniproxy with a little udp
:53 handler.
No tests in tsnet yet because we don't have support for dialing over
UDP in tsnet yet. When that's done, a new test can test both sides.
