Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

Bumping across one of our scripts with very long trailing whitespaces, I
thought it might be a good idea to clean these up. Doing so, some
missing or inconsistent licence headers were fixed.
There is no need in shipping all these files en bloc, as their
functionality won't change.

Fix build/install of manpages.
This defaults to attempting to install manpages, unless --disable-man is
given to stop it. It defaults to not building the manpages, unless it
finds docbook2man to build them with.
So for users of the release tarball this will install the manual pages
from the tarball, unless requested not to.
For users of the git repository it will error if they don't have
docbook2man, unless they choose to disable manual pages. I think this is
reasonable because docbook2man is a required tool for build from source.

Allow version to be overridden.
By default, it still uses the short version of the commit reference.
This is most useful for normal CI builds so you can easily see which
commit a tarball is made from. But when testing for a release one might
want to specify the version explicitly, so this can now be overridden by
manually triggering a build and setting LSG_VERSION (eg. 0.92).

Not sure why this has ever been there. This simply makes it
nicer to read and edit because we can have line-breaks now.

Most of these files still used old dates and/or domain names for contact
mail addresses. This is now replaced by an up-to-date copyright line.
Just some housekeeping... :-)
