This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
There are some situations where having aligned allocations would be
useful, so we don't have to play tricks with padding the data to the
cacheline sizes.
Add isc_mem_{get,put,reget,putanddetach}_aligned() functions that has
alignment and size as last argument mimicking the POSIX posix_memalign()
functions on systems with jemalloc (see the documentation on
MALLOX_ALIGN() for more details). On systems without jemalloc, those
functions are same as non-aligned variants.
It was discovered that named could crash due to a segmentation fault
when jemalloc was in use and memory allocation failed. This was not
intended to happen as jemalloc's "xmalloc" option was set to "true" in
the "malloc_conf" configuration variable. However, that variable was
only set after jemalloc was already done with parsing it, which
effectively caused setting that variable to have no effect.
While investigating this issue, it was also discovered that enabling the
"xmalloc" option makes jemalloc use a slow processing path, decreasing
its performance by about 25%. [1]
Additionally, further testing (carried out after fixing the way
"malloc_conf" was set) revealed that the non-default configuration
options do not have any measurable effect on either authoritative or
recursive DNS server performance.
Replace code setting various jemalloc options to non-default values with
assertion checks of mallocx()/rallocx() return values.

On OpenBSD and more generally on platforms without either jemalloc or
malloc_(usable_)size, we need to increase the alignment for the memory
to sizeof(max_align_t) as with plain sizeof(void *), the compiled code
would be crashing when accessing the returned memory.
In the rallocx() shim for OpenBSD (that's the only platform that doesn't
have malloc_size() or malloc_usable_size() equivalent), the newly
allocated size was missing the extra size_t member for storing the
allocation size leading to size_t sized overflow at the end of the
reallocated memory chunk.
This commit adds support for systems where the jemalloc library is not
available as a package, here's the quick summary:
* On Linux - the jemalloc is usually available as a package, if
configured --without-jemalloc, the shim would be used around
malloc(), free(), realloc() and malloc_usable_size()
* On macOS - the jemalloc is available from homebrew or macports, if
configured --without-jemalloc, the shim would be used around
malloc(), free(), realloc() and malloc_size()
* On FreeBSD - the jemalloc is *the* system allocator, we just need
to check for <malloc_np.h> header to get access to non-standard API
* On NetBSD - the jemalloc is *the* system allocator, we just need to
check for <jemalloc/jemalloc.h> header to get access to non-standard
API
* On a system hostile to users and developers (read OpenBSD) - the
jemalloc API is emulated by using ((size_t *)ptr)[-1] field to hold
the size information. The OpenBSD developers care only for
themselves, so why should we care about speed on OpenBSD?
