    Install new LLVM license structure and new developer policy. · 469bdefd
    Chandler Carruth authored
    This installs the new developer policy and moves all of the license
    files across all LLVM projects in the monorepo to the new license
    structure. The remaining projects will be moved independently.
    
    Note that I've left odd formatting and other idiosyncracies of the
    legacy license structure text alone to make the diff easier to read.
    Critically, note that we do not in any case *remove* the old license
    notice or terms, as that remains necessary until we finish the
    relicensing process.
    
    I've updated a few license files that refer to the LLVM license to
    instead simply refer generically to whatever license the LLVM project is
    under, basically trying to minimize confusion.
    
    This is really the culmination of so many people. Chris led the
    community discussions, drafted the policy update and organized the
    multi-year string of meeting between lawyers across the community to
    figure out the strategy. Numerous lawyers at companies in the community
    spent their time figuring out initial answers, and then the Foundation's
    lawyer Heather Meeker has done *so* much to help refine and get us ready
    here. I could keep going on, but I just want to make sure everyone
    realizes what a huge community effort this has been from the begining.
