Bart f3a2ec1fb2 refactor: Rename cmake files and definitions (#5975)
Per XLS-0095, we are taking steps to rename ripple(d) to xrpl(d).

This change updates the CMake files and definitions therein, plus a handful of related modifications. Specifically, the compiler files are renamed from `RippleXXX.cmake` or `RippledXXX.cmake` to `XrplXXX.cmake`, and any references to `ripple` and `rippled` (with or without capital letters) are renamed to `xrpl` and `xrpld`, respectively. The name of the binary, currently `rippled`, remains unchanged and will be updated in a separate PR. This change is purely cosmetic and does not affect the functioning of the binary.

Renaming ripple(d) to xrpl(d)

In the initial phases of development of the XRPL, the open source codebase was called "rippled" and it remains with that name even today. Today, over 1000 nodes run the application, and code contributions have been submitted by developers located around the world. The XRPL community is larger than ever. In light of the decentralized and diversified nature of XRPL, we will rename any references to ripple and rippled to xrpl and xrpld, when appropriate.

See here for more information.

Scripts

To facilitate this transition, there will be multiple scripts that developers can run on their own PRs and forks to minimize conflicts. Each script should be run from the repository root.

  1. .github/scripts/rename/definitions.sh: This script will rename all definitions, such as include guards, from RIPPLE_XXX and RIPPLED_XXX to XRPL_XXX.
  2. .github/scripts/rename/copyright.sh: This script will remove superflous copyright notices.
  3. .github/scripts/rename/cmake.sh: This script will rename all CMake files from RippleXXX.cmake or RippledXXX.cmake to XrplXXX.cmake, and any references to ripple and rippled (with or without capital letters) to xrpl and xrpld, respectively. The name of the binary will remain as-is, and will only be renamed to xrpld by a later script.

You can run all these scripts from the repository root as follows:

./.github/scripts/rename/definitions.sh .
./.github/scripts/rename/copyright.sh .
./.github/scripts/rename/cmake.sh .
