The entries inside the "Verified copyright headers" section refer to
commit hashes. And since a commit can't refer to itself (unless SHA1
is broken), we split that in two commits.

Without this commit we have no way of tracking the status of files and
we risk making the same verification too many times.
Ideally we also need procedure and/or tools to make sure omissions
don't get in.
So far the work to update some of the headers on some of the files
required to look at multiple git repositories and even tarball
releases, and in some cases it even required good knowledge of the
provenance of the files to reconstruct the proper history.
In contrast the way we track contributions in git makes it much easier
to fix subsequent omissions of people/dates in the copyright headers.

While this doesn't show the complete history of GNU Boot, it is at
least useful for fixing missing copyrights inside copyright headers.
Also I tried adding the first tarball releases of Libreboot, before it
was in git, inside the same git-history.dot and it turned out to be
way too messy as some arrows ended up mostly in the same place making
it impossible to distinguish which arrow went where without using
color or other ways of distinguishing them.
However the textual version of the tarball history turned out to be
easier to read/understand so we used that.
