depmod: Remove license/copyright from the middle

The top license is enough as it's the same. Just move the copyright to
the top and remove notice about code that was copied and modified: that
comment doesn't age well as source is updated.

Drop the one line short description on sources

Some are outdated, misleading or just repeat the same thing over and
over. Remove them as they are not needed.

Use SPDX header for license

Drop the lengthy license from each file and just use SPDX like most
projects nowadays. This doesn't have any change to license, just how
they are recorded in each file.

This follows the kernel approach: header files use '/*' for comments
while .c files use '//'. For .m4, use "#".

libkmod: Move zstd-related functions to separate file

Move zstd-related function to a separate file so it's easier to isolate

Move xz-related function to a separate file so it's easier to isolate
the dependency on each decompression library.

Declare struct kmod_file in a shared libkmod-internal-file.h that will
be included only by sources implementing kmod_file decompression
routines.

libkmod: move new weak API to separate section

Add the new weak API, to a separate section in the version script. These
will be exposed with the upcoming v33 release and not with v5 as the
symbol tag implies.

libkmod: correctly tag kmod_module_new_from_name_lookup

The symbol was introduced with v30, yet was erroneously added in the v5
section. Move it to the correct place.

In theory this might cause an issue - severity depends on how the
runtime linker is setup. From a harmless warning (on stderr/stdout) to
failure to load the library.

In practise this shouldn't be a problem, since there are seemingly no
external users of the API.

libkmod: document KMOD_INDEX_MODULES_BUILTIN_ALIAS in kmod_dump_index()

The extra enum was introduced a few years ago, although the (only)
function using it did not have it's documentation updated.

The commit itself has caused an ABI break with kmod v27, since the
KMOD_INDEX_MODULES_BUILTIN value has changed.

A search through Google, Github and Arch packages have shown one user of
kmod_dump_index() - the only API that uses the enum.

In that case and all others, no projects referencing the changed enum
were found. Although since recent and/or supported distros use kmod v27
or later we've decided to only update the documentation.
