Clarify License #302

The license statement of Bootstrap-3-Typeahead is contradicting:

package.json shows "MIT" while bootstrap3-typeahead.js shows "Apache-2.0".

I assume that the original authors (@mdo and @fat) licensed it under Apache-2 and did not relicense their work under MIT, did they?

I think, officially licensing the library under Apache-2.0MIT does not impose any issues, does it?

I think it is base on https://github.com/twitter/typeahead.js that is under MIT

Then the whole code should be licensed under MIT, thus changing the headers of all files from Apache-2.0 to MIT. Would that be OK?

Also, the .min.js file does not contain any copyright/license header, so distributing it as-is violates the license.
