Description

Update the @copyright tags in all file docblocks to:

  • Have the correct "end" year for the Squiz copyright.
  • Have a secondary @copyright tag for the PHPCSStandards organisation and contributors.

This basically standardized the @copyright tags going forward, without rewriting history.

Includes removing a few unnecessary @author tags from files new to 4.0.

Note: in some case the @copyright tag for "PHPCSStandards and contributors" has a year earlier than 2023. In that case, the tests were originally written for PHPCSUtils and have since been ported over to PHPCS itself.
