Alejandro Colomar 8e849db4e6 Docs: changed Authors section to Copyright section in unitd.8.
The Authors section is meant to list the main authors.  However, the
section only contained the copyright notice, so the Copyright section
seems more appropriate.  While we change that, it makes sense to also
specify the license, and update the copyright year.
