Align headers in generate_build_files.py output. This generator script once lived in Chromium, so we put the Chromium copyright on the output. But we've long since moved it into BoringSSL, so use the BoringSSL license header consistently. This avoids an unnecessary mixed of licenses in the generated branch. Bug: 542 Change-Id: I813a088d97af9671c8a4d7c9c707ae9d835f0349 Reviewed-on: https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/56285 Auto-Submit: David Benjamin <davidben@google.com> Reviewed-by: Adam Langley <agl@google.com> Commit-Queue: Adam Langley <agl@google.com>
BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.
Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.
Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.
BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.
Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
