Thanks for your thorough reviews! @infinisil: You caught 3 CPEs that were deprecated :( Seems like a search in a local copy of the CPE database is not enough, or at least one always also needs to check for deprecation status or in the online search when multiple CPEs/vendors match... |

This PR adds CPE identifiers to various packages using the new CPE tools added in #439074.
The idea is to test how well all this works and get at least some of these tags off the ground.
I started with a few packages that seemed central to me and went from there to also tag dependencies. I stopped at a round 40 files changed.
I also used the go-cpe-dictionary project to download a local copy of the cpe database and compare these entries. I tried to start with software that seemed to have relatively recent entries/versions in the CPE database.
All of these were simple additions of vendor names.
These CPEs are added:
@YorikSar: I tried to use your shiny new tools for the first time. Maybe you're interested :).
