1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.
git_signature_new() and git_signature_now() currently don't return error
codes. Change the API to return error codes and not pointers to let the
user handle errors properly.

Most tags will have a timestamp of whenever the code is running and
dealing with time and timezones is error-prone. Optimize for this case
by adding a function which causes the signature to be created with a
current timestamp.
