We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 6694 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c
and iconvdata/tst-iconv-big5-hkscs-to-2ucs4.c, to work around this
diagnostic from Savannah:
remote: *** pre-commit check failed ...
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
The UP macro is never defined. Also define LOCK_PREFIX
unconditionally, to the same string.

With all Linux ABIs using the expected Linux kABI to indicate
syscalls errors, there is no need to replicate the INLINE_SYSCALL.
The generic Linux sysdep.h includes errno.h even for !__ASSEMBLER__,
which is ok now and it allows cleanup some archaic code that assume
otherwise.
Checked with a build against all affected ABIs.
Use ENTRY and END in assembly codes so that ENDBR32 will be added at
function entries when CET is enabled.

Since glibc doesn't support i386 any more, we can move
i486/pthread_spin_trylock.S to pthread_spin_trylock.S
* sysdeps/i386/i486/pthread_spin_trylock.S: Moved to ...
* sysdeps/i386/pthread_spin_trylock.S: Here.
* sysdeps/i386/i586/pthread_spin_trylock.S: Removed.
* sysdeps/i386/i686/pthread_spin_trylock.S: Updated.
