806db414dd Copyright: clarify and simplify the file headers
* Lumiera source code always was copyrighted by individual contributors
 * there is no entity "Lumiera.org" which holds any copyrights
 * Lumiera source code is provided under the GPL Version 2+

== Explanations ==
Lumiera as a whole is distributed under Copyleft, GNU General Public License Version 2 or above.
For this to become legally effective, the ''File COPYING in the root directory is sufficient.''

The licensing header in each file is not strictly necessary, yet considered good practice;
attaching a licence notice increases the likeliness that this information is retained
in case someone extracts individual code files. However, it is not by the presence of some
text, that legally binding licensing terms become effective; rather the fact matters that a
given piece of code was provably copyrighted and published under a license. Even reformatting
the code, renaming some variables or deleting parts of the code will not alter this legal
situation, but rather creates a derivative work, which is likewise covered by the GPL!

The most relevant information in the file header is the notice regarding the
time of the first individual copyright claim. By virtue of this initial copyright,
the first author is entitled to choose the terms of licensing. All further
modifications are permitted and covered by the License. The specific wording
or format of the copyright header is not legally relevant, as long as the
intention to publish under the GPL remains clear. The extended wording was
based on a recommendation by the FSF. It can be shortened, because the full terms
of the license are provided alongside the distribution, in the file COPYING.

1c6ee62c1a Activity-Lang: allow to verify invocation param in test
requires to supplement EventLog matching primitives
to pick and verify a specific positional argument.

Moreover, it is more or less arbitrary which job invocation parameters
are unpacked and exposed for verification; we'll have to see what is
actually required for writing tests...

e3f1aa4f7c Activity-Lang: support negative assertions for tests
Testcase (detect function invocation) passes now as expected


Some Library / Framework changes

- rename event-log-test.cpp
- allow the ExpectString also to work with concatenated expectation strings


Remark: there was a warning in the comment in event-log.hpp,
pointing out that negative assertions are shallow.

However, after the rework in 9/2018 (commit: d923138d1)
...this should no longer be true, since we perform proper backtracking,
leading to an exhaustive search.
