We add the ClientID() method to the ipnauth.Actor interface and updated ipnserver.actor to implement it.
This method returns a unique ID of the connected client if the actor represents one. It helps link a series
of interactions initiated by the client, such as when a notification needs to be sent back to a specific session,
rather than all active sessions, in response to a certain request.
We also add LocalBackend.WatchNotificationsAs and LocalBackend.StartLoginInteractiveAs methods,
which are like WatchNotifications and StartLoginInteractive but accept an additional parameter
specifying an ipnauth.Actor who initiates the operation. We store these actor identities in
watchSession.owner and LocalBackend.authActor, respectively,and implement LocalBackend.sendTo
and related helper methods to enable sending notifications to watchSessions associated with actors
(or, more broadly, identifiable recipients).
We then use the above to change who receives the BrowseToURL notifications:
- For user-initiated, interactive logins, the notification is delivered only to the user who initiated the
process. If the initiating actor represents a specific connected client, the URL notification is sent back
to the same LocalAPI client that called StartLoginInteractive. Otherwise, the notification is sent to all
clients connected as that user.
Currently, we only differentiate between users on Windows, as it is inherently a multi-user OS.
- In all other cases (e.g., node key expiration), we send the notification to all connected users.

On Windows, the idiomatic way to check access on a named pipe is for
the server to impersonate the client on its current OS thread, perform
access checks using the client's access token, and then revert the OS
thread's access token back to its true self.
The access token is a better representation of the client's rights than just
a username/userid check, as it represents the client's effective rights
at connection time, which might differ from their normal rights.
This patch updates safesocket to do the aforementioned impersonation,
extract the token handle, and then revert the impersonation. We retain
the token handle for the remaining duration of the connection (the token
continues to be valid even after we have reverted back to self).
Since the token is a property of the connection, I changed ipnauth to wrap
the concrete net.Conn to include the token. I then plumbed that change
through ipnlocal, ipnserver, and localapi as necessary.
I also added a PermitLocalAdmin flag to the localapi Handler which I intend
to use for controlling access to a few new localapi endpoints intended
for configuring auto-update.

This updates all source files to use a new standard header for copyright
and license declaration. Notably, copyright no longer includes a date,
and we now use the standard SPDX-License-Identifier header.
This commit was done almost entirely mechanically with perl, and then
some minimal manual fixes.
