Forgetting to bump the year in the copyright clause when hacking has
been quite common among curl developers, but a traditional checksrc
check isn't a good fit as it would penalize anyone hacking on January
1st (among other things). This adds a more selective COPYRIGHTYEAR
check which intends to only cover the currently hacked on changeset.
The check for updated copyright year is currently not enforced on all
files but only on files edited and/or committed locally. This is due to
the amount of files which aren't updated with their correct copyright
year at the time of their respective commit.
To further avoid running this expensive check for every developer, it
adds a new local override mode for checksrc where a .checksrc file can
be used to turn on extended warnings locally.

For compatibility with `fwrite`, the `CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION` callback is
passed two `size_t` parameters which, when multiplied, designate the
number of bytes of data passed in. In practice, CURL always sets the
first parameter (`size`) to 1.
This practice is also enshrined in documentation and cannot be changed
in future. The documentation states that the default callback is
`fwrite`, which means `fwrite` must be a suitable function for this
purpose. However, the documentation also states that the callback must
return the number of *bytes* it successfully handled, whereas ISO C
`fwrite` returns the number of items (each of size `size`) which it
wrote. The only way these numbers can be equal is if `size` is 1.
Since `size` is 1 and can never be changed in future anyway, document
that fact explicitly and let users rely on it.
Closes#2787
