Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
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.
is accessed for the first time as a result of an application looking
up label configuration information. Previously, the check and read
were kicked off by mac_prepare_(typename)() functions; since
mac_prepare_type() may now be directly employed by a user process,
push the check and initialization into that function.

the default label support in /etc/mac.conf. Rather than maintain
each default label type in an explicit global variable in mac.c,
keep a list of defaults loaded from the configuration file.
Generalize the parsing so that we support both the older:
default_file_labels foo
default_ifnet_labels foo
default_process_labels foo
And also a new:
default_labels file foo
default_labels ifnet foo
default_labels process foo
We now accept arbitrary object classes in the first argument. If
the same object is specified more than once, we discard the
earlier definition in favor of the later one.
Add a new API, mac_prepare_type(), which accepts a mac_t to
prepare, as well as an object name in the second argument, which
will pull a default label set for the object out of the
configuration loaded by mac_init_internal(). This permits the libc
to adapt to new objects known about by applications but not by libc
at compile-time.
Also liberalize the error handling a bit: if we're using implicit
initialization (i.e., the application didn't explicitly initialize
the MAC code), ignore syntax errors and only use valid lines. In
the future, we may want to add explicit warnings and do this a
bit more consistently.
While here, add support for a MAC_CONFFILE environmental variable,
which may be used to specify an alternative mac.conf configuration
file if the application isn't running with modified privilege
(issetugid()).

This removes a lot of complexity, since we basically just reserve
space on a retrieval of a label, and pass around strings. Two new
elements: (1) consumers of the API must now declare what label
elements they are interested in retrieving, or (2) rely on the default
provided in a new configuration file, mac.conf.
