maint: Prep for making this repo public #43

Which problem is this PR solving?

We want to make this repository public; it still needs licenses and license validation logic. Once this PR merges, we can flip the public switch.

Short description of the changes

Add Makefile for license validation and update
Add github action to check it; other repos do this in circleci but I don't think we need that here
Add licenses -- the entire LICENSES folder is "generated" (copied) code and should be ignored in this PR
Add various files we use in OS management

Thanks. It's deliberate not to include the whole "changelog" dance for something like this; simply tagging and publishing the release using GitHub's features seems like enough for a tool like this.

Oh yeah that's all fine. I just mean we've been trying to get extra explicit with the steps to tag, eg pull down main, annotate the tag, git push origin v123 (to avoid confusion or accidentally pushing extra tags)
