to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

The existing library assumed that a stream's length would never
change. This makes some things simpler, but it's not flexible
enough for what we need, especially for writable streams where
what you really want is for each call to write to actually append.

The various BinaryStream classes had explicit copy constructors
which resulted in deleted move constructors. This was causing
the internal std::shared_ptr to get copied rather than moved
very frequently, since these classes are often used as return
values.

Often you have an array and you just want to use it. With the current
design, you have to first construct a `BinaryByteStream`, and then create
a `BinaryStreamRef` from it. Worse, the `BinaryStreamRef` holds a pointer
to the `BinaryByteStream`, so you can't just create a temporary one to
appease the compiler, you have to actually hold onto both the `ArrayRef`
as well as the `BinaryByteStream` *AND* the `BinaryStreamReader` on top of
that. This makes for very cumbersome code, often requiring one to store a
`BinaryByteStream` in a class just to circumvent this.
At the cost of some added complexity (not exposed to users, but internal
to the library), we can do better than this. This patch allows us to
construct `BinaryStreamReaders` and `BinaryStreamWriters` directly from
source data (e.g. `StringRef`, `MutableArrayRef<uint8_t>`, etc). Not only
does this reduce the amount of code you have to type and make it more
obvious how to use it, but it solves real lifetime issues when it's
inconvenient to hold onto a `BinaryByteStream` for a long time.
The additional complexity is in the form of an added layer of indirection.
Whereas before we simply stored a `BinaryStream*` in the ref, we now store
both a `BinaryStream*` **and** a `std::shared_ptr<BinaryStream>`. When
the user wants to construct a `BinaryStreamRef` directly from an
`ArrayRef` etc, we allocate an internal object that holds ownership over a
`BinaryByteStream` and forwards all calls, and store this in the
`shared_ptr<>`. This also maintains the ref semantics, as you can copy it
by value and references refer to the same underlying stream -- the one
being held in the object stored in the `shared_ptr`.
