bd48bdcda4 Lint Changelog format in validator docs
Introduces a Markdown linter for checking the Changelog format.

"See Also" was transformed into a section to make it easier to
handle it with the `Content` class. The "Related" linter was
simplified to reflect that change too.

An additional "alignment" parameter was added to markdown table
generators, allowing the padding and headers to be explicitly
marked with a specific left (-1), middle (0) or right(1)
alignment.

Existing files were fixed using the `fix` option after the
changes.

d9cdc118b2 Introduce REUSE compliance
This commit introduces REUSE compliance by annotating all files
with SPDX information and placing the reused licences in the
LICENSES folder.

We additionally removed the docheader tool which is made obsolete
by this change.

The main LICENSE and copyright text of the project is now not under
my personal name anymore, and it belongs to "The Respect Project
Contributors" instead.

This change restores author names to several files, giving the
appropriate attribution for contributions.

Replace isValid() calls with assert()
There's more value on showing how `assert()` displays the validation
messages than simply showing if `isValid()` returns `true` or `false`.

However, that increases the chances of having outdated documentation, so
I created a doc linter that updates the Markdown files with the
correct message.

Remove Yes and No rules
I created those validators to make it easy to parse parameters or
console command inputs that were answers to questions one might ask.

One of the biggest problems is that it depends on the machine's locale,
which can be a bit troublesome, rather than receiving a locale in the
constructor. That doesn’t allow for a lot of flexibility when someone
has a multi-lingual application. Additionally, these validators rely on
the regex from `nl_langinfo()`, which is very permissive, resulting in
false positives.

I have a working version of a console command that retrieves data from
the Unicode Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) and updates a list of
`yesstr` and `nostr` strings from the main XML file of each language.
However, I came to realise that the whole thing is not worth it.

The validators Yes and No can be replaced by using rules like `Regex`
and `In`. They won’t have the ease of multilingual support, but I don’t
think those validators are used a lot. So, I decided I would just remove
them, and if users really ask for it in the next major version, I’d be
happy to revive my branch.

Rename namespace Rules to Validators
Since that namespace contains our “validators”, naming it as such makes
much more sense.
