Having added/modified text in the supplements, Boud is now a copyright
holder of this file too.
I also added 2021 to the copyright years of paper.tex and supplement.tex.

This commit does some minor copyediting, especially of the
introduction to the supplement. There's no point complaining to
the reader about the word limit of the journal: s/he is not
interested in that. This is not the right place for discussing
journal policy. The need for summarising content and focussing on
key elements of a cohesive argument is fundamental in a world of
information overload. A&A/MNRAS/ApJ/PRD letters are generally
much worse than normal articles in terms of reproducibility
because they have to omit so many details that the reader has
to read the full articles to really know what is done. But the
reality is that letters get read a lot, because they're short
and snappy.

In the abstract the repeated benefits of Maneage (which are also mentioned
in the criteria) were removed to fit into CiSE's online submission
guidelines. In Section II (Longevity of existing tools), the paragraph that
itemized the following paragrahs as a numbered list has been removed with
the sentence that repeatedly states the importance of reproducibility in
the sciences and some branches of the industry.
With these changes our approximate automatic count has 6277 words. This is
still very slightly larger than the 6250 word limit of the
journal. However, this count is a definite over-estimation (including many
things like page titles and page numberings from the raw PDF to text
conversion). So the actual count for the journal publication should be less
than this.
A few other tiny corrections were made:
- The year of the paper and copyright in 'README.md' was set to 2021. The
copyright of the rest of the files will be set to 2021 after the next
merge with Maneage soon (the years of core infrastructure copyrights has
already been corrected there).
- Mohammadreza's name was added in 'README.md'.
- The line to import the "necessity" appendix has been commented in the
version to have the full paper in one PDF (to be upladed to arXiv or
Zenodo).
- The supplement PDF now starts with '\appendices' so the sections have
the same labels as the single-PDF version.

Until now the supplement had no introduction for a random reader to see the
purpose of this "Web extra" supplement.
With this commit, an abstract has been added.

Until now, the build strategy of the paper was to have a single output PDF
that either contains (1) the full paper with appendices in the same paper
(2) only the main body of the paper with no appencies.
But the editor in chief of CiSE recently recommended publishing the
appendices as supplements that is a separate PDF (on its webpage). So with
this commit, the project can make either (1) a single PDF (containing both
the main body and the appendices) that will be published on arXiv and will
be the default output (this is the same as before). (2) two PDFs: one that
is only the main body of the paper and another that is only the appendices.
Since the appendices will be printed as a PDF in any case now, the old
'--no-appendix' option has been replaced by '--supplement'. Also, the
internal shell/TeX variable 'noappendix' has been renamed to
'separatesupplement'.
