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.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Generate output that looks more like the SunOS mknetid: uses a space
instead of tabs for white space.
Fix typo in comment in hash.h: Groupit -> Groupid.
the Himalayas and become a hermit.)
Import new mknetid program. This replaces the crufty, soon to be defunct
mknetid script packaged with ypserv.
This program parses the group, passwd, hosts and netid databases into
the netid.byname map. Duplicate checking is performed using hash tables.
Testing on my 486DX2/66 with FreeBSD 2.1.0 showed that this program can
process a 30,000-entry passwd database into a netid map (along with
assorted group and hosts information) in about 22 seconds. On my SPARC IPX
with SunOS 4.1.3, it takes about 15 seconds. This compares favorably with
the SunOS mknetid program, which parses the same database(s) in 13 seconds.
(With smaller databases, my program is actually slightly faster. Go
figure.)
