Refactor authorship information for more technical accuracy.

Google advises its employees to add Google Inc. as an author, but that hasn't been done yet and would be super inconvenient. So instead I've refactored the file to refer to "The JsonCpp Authors", which are listed in the AUTHORS file. The AUTHORS file itself is generated via: git log --pretty="%an <%ae>%n%cn <%ce>" | sort | uniq Plus the addition of "Google Inc." as a copyright author. (Google owns the work of anyone contributing from an @google.com address, for example.) The list contains some probable duplicates where people have used more than one email address. I didn't deduplicate because -- well, who's to say they're duplicates, anyway? :)
