The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

uses it since it wasn't a simple mechanical change, and will be
addressed in a future commit.
is still one issue on FreeBSD/arm (signed vs unsigned char) which prevents
actually bumping this to WARNS=6 - I'm still considering the correct
solution to this issue.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Old locate(1) programs still works with the new database format, print
some garbage for 8 bit characters, but don't core (maybe except char 30).
7-Bit Puritan should not notice any difference. Same speed,
Same database size if the database contain only ASCII characters.

Bigram does not remove newline at end of filename. This
break particulary the bigram algorithm and /var/db/locate.database
grow up 15 %.
Bigram does not check for characters outside 32-127.
The bigram output is silly and need ~1/2 CPU time of
database rebuilding.
old:
locate.bigram < $filelist | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this can easy made bigram
new:

Code does not check for char 31.
Use a lookup array instead a function. 3 x faster.
