[cairo] Source files without copyright attribution

It has recently come to my attention that we have some source files in
the distribution without any copyright statement.

All of these are in the test/ or boilerplate/ directories, so they
don't form part of the compiled library, but they should definitely
still have the appropriate statements in place, (and for these files,
the MIT license used for files in test/ and boilerplate).

The list of files is below, along with the name of the person who
originally committed the file. Could the people below please do one of
the following (in order of my preference):

1. Add an appropriate copyright statement and push the file to git's
   central repository.

2. Add an appropriate copyright statement and email the file here to
   the cairo mailing list for inclusion in cairo.

3. Send an email to the cairo mailing list stating the proper copyright
   attribution and giving us permission to add that.

Thanks,

-Carl
