doc/doc.am: Revise copyright notice.
Add a copyright notice for myself. I've never executed copyright
assignment paperwork with the FSF, so my "legally significant" changes
to doc.am from 2021 to 2023[1] can't be under the FSF's copyright.
[1] Judging by the threshold articulated in the GNU Maintainers' manual:
"A change of just a few lines (less than 15 or so) is not legally
significant for copyright."
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Legally-Significant.html
I applied this metric in a crude and obvious way; using `git log
--stat`, I looked for commits with 15 or more "insertions", and
subtracted the number of "deletions". If the resulting count was
still 15 or greater, I treated the change as "legally significant".
For example, this commit is ruled out:
commit d79c3f3a4a19f7bf616a69558c4d3ce13690f441

But these remain "legally significant":
