chore: relicense from Apache-2.0 to MIT #137

Description

@Jaro-c

Part of the org-wide Apache-2.0 → MIT migration (standards/licensing, decided 2026-07). Reference implementation: podup #1029 / #1031.

Relicense this repo to MIT:

  • Replace LICENSE with the canonical MIT text, Copyright (c) 2026 Glyndor (copy the file the epistle pilot uses).
  • Set the manifest license to MIT (Cargo.toml / package.json / go.mod metadata / manifest.json, whichever applies).
  • If the repo ships a .deb, switch debian/copyright (DEP-5) to MIT (full text inline).
  • Update README license mentions/badge to MIT.
  • Remove NOTICE if present — an Apache-2.0 §4(d) mechanism MIT does not use.
  • Convert any SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0 source headers to MIT.
  • Do NOT touch dependency-license allow-lists (deny.toml / about.toml / about.hbs) — they govern third-party licenses, not this repo's own.

The relicense lands on develop and reaches main at the next release (like the pilots). Clean relicense: the owner holds the copyright and PRs are collaborators-only, so no CLA.
