Bence Szépkúti 1e14827beb Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance
As a result, the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now
acknowledged, and the years of publishing are no longer tracked in the
source files.

Also remove the now-redundant lines declaring that the files are part of
MbedTLS.

# Purpose
#
# Run a test using the debugger to check that the mbedtls_platform_zeroize()
# function in platform_util.h is not being optimized out by the compiler. To do
# so, the script loads the test program at programs/test/zeroize.c and sets a
# breakpoint at the last return statement in main(). When the breakpoint is
# hit, the debugger manually checks the contents to be zeroized and checks that
# it is actually cleared.
#
# The mbedtls_platform_zeroize() test is debugger driven because there does not
# seem to be a mechanism to reliably check whether the zeroize calls are being
# eliminated by compiler optimizations from within the compiled program. The
# problem is that a compiler would typically remove what it considers to be
# "unnecessary" assignments as part of redundant code elimination. To identify
# such code, the compilar will create some form dependency graph between
# reads and writes to variables (among other situations). It will then use this
# data structure to remove redundant code that does not have an impact on the
# program's observable behavior. In the case of mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), an
# intelligent compiler could determine that this function clears a block of
# memory that is not accessed later in the program, so removing the call to
# mbedtls_platform_zeroize() does not have an observable behavior. However,
# inserting a test after a call to mbedtls_platform_zeroize() to check whether
# the block of memory was correctly zeroed would force the compiler to not
# eliminate the mbedtls_platform_zeroize() call. If this does not occur, then
# the compiler potentially has a bug.
#
# Note: This test requires that the test program is compiled with -g3.
