- Rename the file CREDITS => AUTHORS
- Say 'authors' in the copyright notice. Scripted change:

TIOCL_SETSEL modes
CAP_SYS_ADMIN was previously required for the entire TIOCL_SETSEL
subcode, but is now only needed for a subset of the selection modes,
since linux.git 2f83e38a095f (2025-01-13; "tty: Permit some
TIOCL_SETSEL modes without CAP_SYS_ADMIN").
The CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement for TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT was further
corrected in linux.git ee6a44da3c87 (2025-04-11; "tty: Require
CAP_SYS_ADMIN for all usages of TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT").
Admittedly, there are kernels where CAP_SYS_ADMIN was briefly not
required for TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT, even after Linux v6.7, but this was
a mistake which is now fixed in all up-to-date stable kernels.
Therefore, we still document CAP_SYS_ADMIN as required "since Linux
6.7" in this case.

modes: TIOCL_SELPOINTER, TIOCL_SELCLEAR, TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT
Documents the following TIOCL_SETSEL sub-operations:
* TIOCL_SELPOINTER
* TIOCL_SELCLEAR
* TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT
These previously undocumented selection modes for the Linux console
are implemented in <drivers/tty/vt/selection.c>. The name "selection
mode" is slightly misleading as not all of them actually manipulate
the kernel's mouse selection buffer.
Includes clarified semantics pointed out by Jared Finder.

selection modes
* Indent the documented selection modes into tagged paragraphs.
* Document constants from the header file <tiocl.h> instead of numbers.
* Clarify expansion semantics as suggested by Jared Finder.
