Add license and citation

[jules32]

Per Fernando Perez's question for the 2021-Cloud-Hackathon materials, we should make sure we have licenses and citation information for all our work

Similarly to NASA-Openscapes/2021-Cloud-Hackathon#98, I am looking to grab some code from this repo as well. Thank you so much for the useful repos and for opening this issue!

adding some notes from https://github.com/NASA-Openscapes/2021-Cloud-Hackathon/issues/98

@jules32 added MIT licence to https://github.com/NASA-Openscapes/2021-Cloud-Hackathon (modeled from https://github.com/CryoInTheCloud/CryoCloudWebsite/blob/main/LICENSE)

from @fperez:

Our content will all be BSD/MIT-licensed (with CC-BY for non-code), it would be awesome if your license choice could be compatible, but that's obviously your call.

Stef look for rOpenSci discourse discussion on license and copyright complexity.

Good Discussion of licenses in rOpenSci Discussion Forum w contributions from Elin Waring & Steph Hazlitt

Are you okay with commercial use? Are you okay with people using it without acknowledging you?

CC licenses are not designed for code and end up causing problems.

@erinmr & @stefaniebutland added license copied from Openscapes Approach Guide LICENSE.md to accommodate both code and non-code (MIT)components

We considered examples before choosing license. Cookbook includes both code and non-code. CC-By for non-code.
