[master] Update 3rd party licnese issues
Instead of duplicating more third-party licenses here in LICENSE
file (there are many), just generically suggest to see the other files.
Per the md5 copyright license agreement, add mention of
required verbatim advertising statement in the release notes and
readme.
In the RELNOTES, I also mention ISC is open source software.
In the README, I added a HISTORY section and placed that
advertising statement there. If the HISTORY section is not wanted,
then remove it and just mention the required verbatim advertising statement.
By the way, some good history is in old READMEs and at
http://hack.org/mc/texts/dhcp-freenix.txt
(but I can't find the official hosted Lemon version of that paper).
Remove the advertising clause from the historical BSD
code copyrighted by The Regents of the University of California.
For details see
ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/pub/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change
(To summarize: in 1999, the University said that distributors
are no longer required to acknowledge within advertising and the
paragraph in the license may be deleted.)
