Using WINHTTP_AUTOPROXY_ALLOW_AUTOCONFIG on Windows versions older than Windows 10 1703 (build 15063)
is not supported and causes WinHttpGetProxyForUrl to fail with ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER. This results in failures
reaching the control on environments where a proxy is required.
We use wingoes version detection to conditionally set the WINHTTP_AUTOPROXY_ALLOW_AUTOCONFIG flag
on Windows builds greater than 15063.
While there, we also update proxy detection to use WINHTTP_AUTO_DETECT_TYPE_DNS_A, as DNS-based proxy discovery
might be required with Active Directory and in certain other environments.

This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright
and license declaration. Notably, copyright no longer includes a date,
and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.
This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then
some minimal manual fixes.

To collect some data on how widespread this is and whether there's
any correlation between different versions of Windows, etc.

The definition of winHTTPProxyInfo was using the wrong type (uint16 vs uint32)
for its first field. I fixed that type.
Furthermore, any UTF16 strings returned in that structure must be explicitly
freed. I added code to do this.
Finally, since this is the second time I've seen type safety errors in this code,
I switched the native API calls over to use wrappers generated by mkwinsyscall.
I know that would not have helped prevent the previous two problems, but every
bit helps IMHO.

The best flag to use on Win7 and Win8.0 is deprecated in Win8.1, so we resolve
the flag depending on OS version info.

The Windows BOOL type is an int32. We were using a bool,
which is a one byte wide. This could be responsible for the
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER errors we were seeing for calls to
WinHttpGetProxyForUrl.
We manually checked all other existing Windows syscalls
for similar mistakes and did not find any.

We often see things in logs like:
2021-03-02 17:52:45.2456258 +0800 +0800: winhttp: Open: The parameter is incorrect.
2021-03-02 17:52:45.2506261 +0800 +0800: tshttpproxy: winhttp: GetProxyForURL("https://log.tailscale.io/c/tailnode.log.tailscale.io/5037bb42f4bc330e2d6143e191a7ff7e837c6be538139231de69a439536e0d68"): ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER [unexpected]
I have a hunch that WinHTTP has thread-local state. If so, this would fix it.
If not, this is pretty harmless.

Otherwise log upload HTTP requests generate proxy errrors which
generate logs which generate HTTP requests which generate proxy
errors which generate more logs, etc.
Fixes#879
Otherwise when PAC server is down, we log, and each log entry is a new
HTTP request (from logtail) and a new GetProxyForURL call, which again
logs, non-stop. This is also nicer to the WinHTTP service.
Then also hook up link change notifications to the cache to reset it
if there's a chance the network might work sooner.
We currently have a chickend-and-egg situation in some environments
where we can set up routes that WinHTTP's WPAD/PAC resolution service
needs to download the PAC file to evaluate GetProxyForURL, but the PAC
file is behind a route for which we need to call GetProxyForURL to
e.g. dial a DERP server.
As a short-term fix, just assume that the most recently returned proxy
is good enough for such situations.
