Since we'll be adding POP3 support as our 4th network protocol;
asking admins to run yet another daemon on top of existing
-httpd, -nntpd, -imapd is a maintenance burden and a waste of
memory.
The goal of public-inbox-netd is to be able to replace all
existing read-only daemons with a single process to save memory
and reduce administrative overhead; hopefully encouraging more
users to self-host their own mirrors.
It's barely-tested at the moment. Eventually, multiple
PI_CONFIG and HOME directories will be supported, as are
per-listener .psgi config files.

Using "make update-copyrights" after setting GNULIB_PATH in my

This allows us to simplify some of our existing code and make
future changes easier.
I doubt anybody goes through the trouble to have a Perl
installation without zlib support. The zlib source code is even
bundled with Perl since 5.9.3 for systems without existing zlib
development headers and libraries.
Of course, zlib is also a requirement of git, too; and we're not
going to stop using git :)

I didn't wait until September to do it, this year!

There's a bunch of leftover "require" and "use" statements we no
longer need and can get rid of, along with some excessive
imports via "use".
IO::Handle usage isn't always obvious, so add comments
describing why a package loads it. Along the same lines,
document the tmpdir support as the reason we depend on
File::Temp 0.19, even though every Perl 5.10.1+ user has it.
While we're at it, favor "use" over "require", since it it gives
us extra compile-time checking.

This is only tested so far with my patches to Net::NNTP at:
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=129967
Memory use in C10K situations is disappointing, but that's
the nature of compression.
gzip compression over HTTPS does have the advantage of not
keeping zlib streams open when clients are idle, at the
cost of worse compression.

It kinda, barely works, and I'm most happy I got it working
without any modifications to the main NNTP::event_step callback
thanks to the DS->write(CODE) support we inherited from
Danga::Socket.

Using update-copyrights from gnulib
While we're at it, use the SPDX identifier for AGPL-3.0+ to
ease mechanical processing.

Hopefully this modularizes things a little and allows us
to work on a combined super server to save RAM.
|
|
We've distilled the daemon code into one public function ("run"),
so avoid polluting the main namespace and just have users
prefix with the full package name for this rarely-used class.

This seems to match more closely with what is expected of Perl
packages based on how blib is used. Hopefully makes the top-level
source tree less cluttered and things easier-to-find.
