[platform-releng-dev] updating copyrights on ext point schema *.exsd files

Teams, Please check the copyright notices in the extension point schema 
(*.exsd) files and update as required.

To check, open the appropriate help book in today's Eclipse build.
Platform Plug-in Developer Guide, JDT Plug-in Developer Guide, or PDE 
Guide
Reference / Extension Points Reference
following link to extension point

At the bottom of the page there should be a copyright notice like the 
following. If everything is right, it shows up in a small blue font:

"Copyright (c) 2004 IBM Corporation and others.
All rights reserved. This program and the accompanying materials are made 
available under the terms of the Common Public License v1.0 which 
accompanies this distribution, and is available at 
http://www.eclipse.org/legal/cpl-v10.html "

If it's missing, or out-of-date, or there's a missing image, you need to 
change the schema file.
Here's the corresponding passage in the (source view of the) .exsd file of 
a correct file:

   <annotation>
      <appInfo>
         <meta.section type="copyright"/>
      </appInfo>
      <documentation>
         Copyright (c) 2004 IBM Corporation and others.&lt;br&gt;
All rights reserved. This program and the accompanying materials are made 
available under the terms of the Common Public License v1.0 which

      </documentation>
   </annotation>

Like source files, the dates should reflect when the extension point was 
first introduced and encompass subsequence changes of substance (i.e., 
other than these copyright notices<g>).
