Update Copyright Comments
T106302328 wants us to update to "Meta Platforms, Inc. and affiliates".
In addition, I cleaned up some lagging year ranges, rewriting their ends to "present". If there's a reason it should be an explicit year though, I can switch to "2022".
It seems we were told at some point that present wasn't a valid year, and that an actual date was necessary.

That is not the latest guidance. We should move everything to a yearless copyright.
Just Copyright (c) Meta Platforms, Inc. and affiliates. is fine. https://www.internalfb.com/intern/wiki/Open_Source/Licenses/
Sorry for just jumping in for a related copyright question. 😄 Is a new file, like the new .S file in #3155 required to share copyright with Meta? I saw the check in test-licens.py, but exceptions also exist.

I don't want to mess with corporation policies, but I'd recommend giving this blog post a quick read - in short routinely bumping copyright years isn't really that worth it :)
There is no more reference of any year in the copyright header. Is that a wanted outcome ?
@Cyan4973, that seems to be the guidance.
