Subject: [PATCH] maint.mk: simplify update-copyright rule
* top/maint.mk (update-copyright-local): Delete, and document how
to do it in cfg.mk instead.
(update-copyright-exclude-regexp): Delete, and document how to do
it in .x-update-copyright instead.
(update-copyright): Simplify, thanks to VC_LIST_EXCEPT. Don't
exclude ChangeLog.
