Change license to CC0. #56

The MIT license requires attribution. This means that if someone wants to use this template, they must ensure that attribution to Durandal Inc. is copied around/provided. While for software this usually isn't a big deal, things get complicated when providing templates for new applications.

As a user, if I want to make a derivative template or create an open source web application from it, I must ensure that the MIT license and attribution to Durandal Inc. follows the code around. This complicates matters because I cannot just do whatever with the code, I have to jump through some legal hoops if I ever want to share what I have done.

It would be nice if this template (not all of Aurelia) were CC0, then when building from template or creating derivative templates I wouldn't have to worry about/deal with licensing.

@Zoltu I'd be fine with that. If you are still interested, please create a PR to update the licensing info to that affect. Thanks!
