I made a bit of an oversight here! I forgot to clarify the licensing situation for the code in this repo, namely that the contents of the benches directory can't be assumed to come under the same license as the rest of the code. I've set the license for the non-benchmark-suite parts of the project to dual MIT/Apache 2.0 as is common in the Rust community.

I also realized that I'd set a pretty bad example by leaving my name in the author field for a lot of the benchmark crates which were really authored by someone else. I figure it's easiest if we just say that unless you're copying the Cargo.toml from the original crate that we'll just leave the author field off of bench crates Cargo.toml to avoid any confusion.

cc @shssoichiro and @thomwiggers -- sorry to bother you both. I'll merge this some time Monday pacific US time if I haven't heard back, but I'm assuming this should be an uncontentious change.
