such as %s, %d, %x... also width, left justify, zerofill flags are
implemented. Many of the other formats do not work, see the comments in
avian.FormatString javadoc and look for FIXME and TODO items for more
information on features that are known to not work correctly.
There was a test in Strings.java that assumed the default character
encoding was UTF-8, which is an invalid assumption on some platforms
(e.g. Windows). This modifies the test to specify the encoding

Previously, I used a shell script to extract modification date ranges
from the Git history, but that was complicated and unreliable, so now
every file just gets the same year range in its copyright header. If
someone needs to know when a specific file was modified and by whom,
they can look at the Git history themselves; no need to include it
redundantly in the header.
