[Ohrrpgce] SVN: james/12130 Normalize the copyright header on source files

I'm pleased to see the old file headers replaced.
But I wanted to discuss what the copyright line should be. I've never been
inducted into the Hamster Republic and don't think it describes the set of
contributors to the project. And nobody has ever been asked to
assign/transfer their copyrights in their contributions to you or HR, so
they still possess them (and their permission is needed to relicense). I
also don't think I need to be credited as co-maintainer.
I suggest something like:
 Copyright 1997-2020 James Paige and the OHRRPGCE Developers
 Copyright 1997-2020 the OHRRPGCE Developers and Hamster Republic
Productions
 Copyright 1997-2020 James Paige, Hamster Republic Productions and the
OHRRPGCE Developers

I also see some inconsistencies still exist, so I'm going to fix those now
without changing the copyright. (gitk makes it very easy to compare each
file, I just hold down left mouse button and drag over each file in the
changeset).
