We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

No bug. Just seem like relevant cases given that strnlen will
use s + maxlen in many implementations.

This commit adds tests for a bug in the wide char variant of the
functions where the implementation may assume that maxlen for wcsnlen
or n for wmemchr/strncat will not overflow when multiplied by
sizeof(wchar_t).
These tests show the following implementations failing on x86_64:
wcsnlen-sse4_1
wcsnlen-avx2
wmemchr-sse2
wmemchr-avx2
strncat would fail as well if it where on a system that prefered
either of the wcsnlen implementations that failed as it relies on
wcsnlen.

This patch covers the following condition:
Strings start with different alignments and end with length less than or
equal to 512 byte.

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
May be tricky for otimized implementations to handle strings around
page boundary once, for instance, it is performed unaligned loads or
when maxlen is used as a hint for vectorized loops. The test cases
should unveil regression bugs on these cases.
To some extend do_random_tests in string/test-strnlen tests strings
placed at page end but it does not cover all cases. So this change
adds tests which consists of placing strings of varying sizes ending
at the page boundary. It also combines with different values of maxlen.
Tested on ppc64le and x86_64.
* string/test-strnlen.c (do_page_tests): New function
to check length of strings ending at the page boundary.
(test_main): Added call to the do_page_tests function.
