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
I noticed that glibc testsuite runs left several files behind in /tmp
(or TMPDIR, if different). The problem was testcases that generate a
template for mkstemp / mkstemp64, ending with XXXXXX, then pass that
template to add_temp_file before calling mkstemp / mkstemp64, meaning
that the template ending with XXXXXX is stored in the list of
temporary files to delete (add_temp_file uses strdup so that the
original string doesn't need to stay live), not the actual filename as
determined by mkstemp / mkstemp64. This patch fixes those tests to
call add_temp_file later.
Tested for x86_64 (that the files are no longer left behind by a
testsuite run and the modified tests still pass).
