The mingw header define time() as a static inline function and this
causes a duplicate definition build failure. Since we're not using the
LD_PRELOAD at all on Mingw, we ideally wouldn't compile any of the
mock libraries. Rather than change the build system now though, this
just stubs out the offending function.

In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

Besides ID, libvirt should provide several parameters to help the user
distinguish two clients from each other. One of them is the connection
timestamp. This patch also adds a testcase for proper JSON formatting of the
new attribute too (proper formatting of older clients that did not support
this attribute yet is included in the existing tests) - in order to
testGenerateJSON to work, a mock of time_t time(time_t *timer) needed to be
created.
