I also added some functionality to config.[ch], e.g.
cfg_print_section_params() and cfg_print_section_list_lines(), to
support some of the new --list= options which I thought would be helpful
for Aleksey's distributed cracking tool.

git blame -M -C -C -w john.c lists these numbers of lines per author:
    490 magnum
    427 Solar
    235 Frank Dittrich
    130 JimF
     53 Lukas Odzioba
     34 Dhiru Kholia
     13 Samuele
      8 Myrice
      4 Tavis Ormandy
      4 Sayantan Datta
      2 Claudio André

Many of these changes (among them almost all my changes, e.g., support
for various --list= options) have been moved to other files after jumbo-7.

I added --markov=MODE support and a few other enhancements.

I consider all my other changes in src/ to be too trivial for any copyright.

I agree to switch to a more relaxed license, for all the files I changed
in src.
