Paul Eggert 581c785bf3 Update copyright dates with scripts/update-copyrights
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 7061 files FOO.

I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah.  I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

remote: *** 912-#endif
remote: *** 913:
remote: *** 914-
remote: *** error: lines with trailing whitespace found
...
remote: *** error: sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/statx_cp.c: trailing lines

""" Split the list into a smaller set of more distinct points
Group together points such that the difference between the smallest
point and the mean is less than 1/3rd of the mean. This means that
the mean is at most 1.5x the smallest member of that group.
mean - xmin < mean / 3
i.e. 2 * mean / 3 < xmin
i.e. mean < 3 * xmin / 2
For an evenly distributed group, the largest member will be less than
twice the smallest member of the group.
Derivation:
An evenly distributed series would be xmin, xmin + d, xmin + 2d...
mean = (2 * n * xmin + n * (n - 1) * d) / 2 * n
and max element is xmin + (n - 1) * d
Now, mean < 3 * xmin / 2
3 * xmin > 2 * mean
3 * xmin > (2 * n * xmin + n * (n - 1) * d) / n
3 * n * xmin > 2 * n * xmin + n * (n - 1) * d
n * xmin > n * (n - 1) * d
xmin > (n - 1) * d
2 * xmin > xmin + (n-1) * d
2 * xmin > xmax
Hence, proved.
Similarly, it is trivial to prove that for a similar aggregation by using
the maximum element, the maximum element in the group must be at most 4/3
times the mean.
