Question about copyright headers of JIT-related files

[Julien Bect]

Hi all,

JIT-related source file have the line "Copyright (C) 2012-2019 Max Brister".

I was wondering about the reason this, since Max Brister contributions 
were all done in 2012, 2013.

Other people have made changes in the following years.  For instance, I 
have extracted below the list of commits that have changed pt-jit.cc.

Should we do something about this ?
