I've queued the other patches in this series, but am dropping this
one, because it's only sort of
correct. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8809853 for details
(DannyBee is an Actual Lawyer who also is an engineer), but the short
version is we don't actually /want/ to update copyright on files
unless they're updated.

As far as the copyright on the entire program (eg in the .iss file)
and in setup.py, that's probably the right thing to do, but I'm not
sure if we should have a test that goes red when the year changes
(which, keep in mind, varies a bit on timezone, so we'd have a 24 hour
period where the tests necessarily did not pass for everyone). I guess
let's do the html/iss/setup.py whole-app lines and ignore the test?
