scripts: mailmapper: SPDX license identifier

If the SPDX license identifier is in the first line the shell does not
recognize which interpreter shall be used to execute the script.

Cf. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.16/process/license-rules.html
for scripts which require the '#!PATH_TO_INTERPRETER' in the first line
(...) the SPDX identifier goes into the second line.

SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

tools, scripts: refactor error-out statements of Python scripts

In Python, sys.exit() function can also take an object other
than an integer.

If an integer is given to the argument, Python exits with the return
code of it. If a non-integer argument is given, Python outputs it
to stderr and exits with the return code of 1.

That means,

print >> sys.stderr, "Blah Blah"
sys.exit(1)

is equivalent to

sys.exit("Blah Blah")

The latter is a useful shorthand.

Note:
Some error messages in Buildman and Patman were output to stdout.
But they should go to stderr. They are also fixed by this commit.
This is a nice side effect.

scripts: add mailmapper, a tool to create/update mailmap file

This tool helps to create/update the mailmap file.

It runs 'git shortlog' internally and searches differently spelled author
names which share the same email address. The author name with the most
commits is asuumed to be a canonical real name. If the number of commits
from the cananonical name is equal to or greater than 'MIN_COMMITS' (=50),
the entry for the cananical name will be output. ('MIN_COMMITS' is used
here because we do not want to create a fat mailmap by adding every author
with only a few commits.)

If there exists a mailmap file specified by the mailmap.file configuration
options or '.mailmap' at the toplevel of the repository, it is used as
a base file.

The base file and the newly added entries are merged together and sorted
alphabetically (but the comment block is kept untouched), and then printed
to standard output.

Usage
-----

scripts/mailmapper

prints the mailmapping to standard output.

scripts/mailmapper > tmp; mv tmp .mailmap

will be useful for updating '.mailmap' file.
