The way jot(1) defaults missing arguments doesn't match the behaviour
described in the manpage, which states that with fewer than 3 arguments
missing values are supplied from left to right.
In fact, with one or two arguments, the last (s which is step size or seed)
defaults to 1 (or -1 if begin and end specify a descending range), and then
omitted arguments are set to default starting with the leftmost until three
arguments are available.
This is why `jot 2 1000` prints 1000 and 1001 instead of 1000 and 100.

This allows an endless stream of random data within the given bounds.
It already worked if a seed was provided as the 4th argument but not
if one was left out.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
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.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

after r298107
Summary of changes:
- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
`tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)
Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples
so it's clear that ${PACKAGES}FILES is the suggested way forward in terms of
replacing FILES. share/mk/bsd.README didn't seem like the appropriate method
of communicating that info.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

I'm starting with the easy cases. The leftovers need to be looked at a
bit more closely.
Note that this change _does_ modify the code of the old tests. This is
required in order to allow the code to locate the data files in the
source directory instead of the current directory, because Kyua
automatically changes the latter to a temporary directory.
Also note that at least one test is known to be broken here. Actually,
the test is not really broken: it's marked as a TODO but unfortunately
Kyua's TAP parser currently does not understand that. Will have to be
fixed separately.

Also add $FreeBSD$ to a few files to keep svn happy.

Note: In the case of a full buffer the OpenBSD implementation will
leave in the format string an invalid escape sequence. This appears
to be harmless with our C library, but according to C99 this can
cause undefined behavior.

Note: It would be nice to be able to implement getformat() using
fmtcheck(3), but fmtcheck does not distinguish between signed and
unsigned types, a facility jot needs to perform range checks on its
output.

Up to now jot would fail to generate the last character in the range
or skew the integer distribution in a way that would generate the numbers
in the range's limits with half the probability of the rest.
This modification fixes the program, rather than documenting the
strange behavior, as suggested in docs/54879.
Also, correctly specify the range of random(3).

This functionality was lost in revision 1.9 when the random number
