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.
white is not going to work well on a terminal with a white background,
obviously. We should keep the standard colour and just try applying the
bold.
or do we want to consider a non black/white colour? like blue...?

all of these echo helpers are essentially 'logging' functions with output
always intended for stdout/stderr. lack of explicit stdout/stderr direction
means that their output could be captured unintentionally should they be
used within a function designed to construct a string.

lack of stderr directed output for the `E:` prefix meant that it would
not appear alongside the message in some use cases

This makes it possible to build an image against a first distribution
(--distribution-chroot) and have the resulting image point to another
distribution (--distribution-binary). We can use this to build against a
snapshot and have the result use the original distribution that was
snapshotted.
