update formatting of copyright notices * Use <https://octave.org/copyright/> instead of <https://octave.org/COPYRIGHT.html/>. * For consistency with other comments in the Octave sources, use C++-style comments for copyright blocks in C and C++ files. * Use delimiters above and below copyright blocks that are appropriate for the language used in the file. * Eliminate extra spacing inside copyright blocks. * lex.ll (looks_like_copyright): Also allow newlines and carriage returns before the word "Copyright". * scripts/mk-doc.pl (gethelp): Also skip empty comment lines. * bp-table.cc, type.m: Adjust tests.
