Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified 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.
No functional change intended.
The most notable new feature is support for processing multiple
files in one invocation. There is also support for more make-friendly
exit statuses.
The most notable bug fix is #line directives now include the input
file name.

The old code used a shell loop to convert each controlling macro
definition into a command-line argument, reading the macro definitions
file each time. The new code converts the list of controlling macros
into a sed script which can run through the list of macro definitions
in one go.
Add some explanatory comments, since the code is quite meta.
Use {} instead of () for redirecting a group of commands.

Main highlights:
(A) The new -B option compresses blank lines around a deleted section
so that blank lines around "paragraphs" of code don't get doubled.
(B) Lenient evaluation of && and || so that #if expressions can be
evaluated even when some of their sub-expressions cannot be.
(C) The evaluator can now handle macros with arguments.
(D) Portability fixes, especially for unifdefall.

* It now knows about the existence of #elif which would have
caused it to produce incorrect results in some situations.
* It can now process #if and #elif lines according to the
values of symbols that are specified on the command line.
The expression parser is only a simple subset of what C
allows but it should be sufficient for most real-world
code (it can cope with everything it finds in xterm).
* It has an option for printing all of the symbols that might
control #if processing. The unifdefall script uses this
option along with cpp -dM to strip all #ifs from a file.
* It has much larger static limits.
* It handles nested #ifs much more completely.
There have also been many style improvements: KNF; ANSI function
definitions; all global stuff moved to the top of the file; use
stdbool instead of h0h0bool; const-correctness; err(3) instead
of fprintf(stderr, ...); enum instead of #define; commentary.
I used NetBSD's unifdef as the basis of this since it has received
the most attention over the years.
