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.

just "directory" entries.
Prior to this commit, if / was added as part of a security update (how? In
the most recent case, because lib32 was accidentally omitted and was then
re-added, and every installer distribution set gets its own paths) then
the code which was supposed to filter out updates to deleted parts of the
base system (if someone decides to delete / then we shouldn't re-create it
for them) would instead get confused and decided that while / should exist,
// should not exist and needs to be removed.
This fixes the bug which caused freebsd-update to want to delete / (which is
harmless, since `rm /` fails, but scary nonetheless). A workaround is being
applied to the update bits in order to avoid triggering the bug on unpatched
systems.

at the end of the upgrade process, after warning users to upgrade any
3rd party software (e.g., from the ports tree) which might link to the
libraries being removed.
Prior to this commit, the line
/usr/lib/libc.so|...|/lib/libc.so.7
matched the regex, which -- upgrading from 9.x to 10.x, where libc.so is
a regular file and thus was not part of a line which matched the regex --
resulted in freebsd-update thinking that /usr/lib/libc.so was a shared
library which was being removed as part of the upgrade. This had some
unfortunate consequences.
This will be part of an upcoming Errata Notice.
directories last.
This is generally handled by the fact that the list of filesystem objects
is sorted, but this sorting is broken by code which moves .so files ahead
(so that they're present before any binaries which use them)... that code
also moved .so files ahead of directories, which is a problem for upgrading
to 10.0 where there's a new directory containing new .so files.
