since everywhere where 'apt' is a permitted value, 'apt-get' is also, it
just wasn't listed in the option's documentation and thus was also not
listed in the new validation check.

80aa5ab611 implemented a hack to handle
replacement of LB_LINUX_FLAVOURS with LB_LINUX_FLAVOURS_WITH_ARCH in
config files, but implemented it in the wrong place.
adding a conditional conversion within the config file meant that the old
value would only be read from **new** config files that are created
obviously without it, including re-saved configs if `lb config` were
re-run with additional options (not recommended). any existing value in an
existing config file would actually be ignored.
the right place to read the old value was in the Set_defaults() function
(since renamed).
a second issue also existed with the hack, it failed to excape the `$`
and thus printed the existing value of $LB_LINUX_FLAVOURS into the
conditional check being constructed in the config file, instead of
printing the name of the variable. the check embedded into the config
file thus became this on an amd64 machine:
```
if [ -n "amd64" ]
then
LB_LINUX_FLAVOURS_WITH_ARCH="amd64"
fi
```
which is clearly not what was intended.

- add a validation check where an error will be printed
- replace the check done in the grub scripts with one that simple exits
if executed bypassing the validation check

the stuff in defaults.sh is only partially to do with setting default
config values, it also does other prep work like centralised comma
separated value to space separated conversion, and validation.
this is split into two parts to keep the diff simple, first we move the
two small functions from configuration.sh into default.sh...

all vars affected have been carefully checked to be quite certain
that they are definitely local
where variable is assigned the return value of a function/command, the
local "declaration" is deliberately done on a separate line, since
`local FOO` is actually treated itself as a command rather than a
declaration; will thus always cause $? to be zero, and thus if done on
the same line as such an assignment can not only clobber $? but in doing
so unintentionally blocks failure of a command from triggering the
expected exit from having `set -e`.
also, from testing, i have found that when assigning "${@}" this must be
done on a separate line confusingly as otherwise an error occurs.

Current versions of the project files are built upon versions published
and licensed by Daniel Baumann, but are modified copies of those files and
thus need to be marked as such per licensing requirements (afaik he did
not pass along ownership / licensing rights to anyone when he left the
project). We should also be careful to not be misrepresenting such
modified copies as being attributed to Daniel.
Adding a new copyright line referring to "The Debian Live team" should
suffice for this.
The authorship block in man pages has also similarly been updated.
Notes:
- tweaked a copy of daniel copyright lines stating 2014 instead of 2015.
both of these cases were in files that i had personally introduced in
some of my past merged commits that moved some code around. i don't know
why they stated 2014.
- binary_onie was introduced in 2018, so that has a 2018 date instead of
2016 unlike the rest.
- 'efi-image' is a 3rd-party (Canonical Ltd) work that we bundle, but it
has been modified by 674794a8f4 and
36a3ba7634 so I similarly added a
debian live copyright line.
- 'grub-cpmodules' is similar. it was only changed by the indentation fix
of 36a3ba7634 but modification is
modification, and this does help cover any possible future changes that
might be made.
