Edit Open vSwitch license info so that GitHub recognizes it.
GitHub uses a library called Licensee to identify a project's license type. It shows this information in the status bar and via the API if it can unambiguously identify the license. This commit creates a LICENSE file that stores the full text of the Apache license. It also removes the COPYING file and transfers its contents to a new "License" section in the README. Collectively, these changes allow Licensee to successfully identify the license type of Open vSwitch's codebase as Apache. Submitted-at: https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/pull/224 Signed-off-by: Andrea Kao <eirinikos@gmail.com> [blp@ovn.org removed references to COPYING and updated Makefile.am] Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@ovn.org> Acked-by: Aaron Conole <aconole@redhat.com>
