Update license files. #40

This is to ensure that they will be part of the published package. Technically they are symlinks to the repo root, to save space.

Druid uses symbolic links and has a section about making sure they're enabled on Windows. This is a significant issue only for people who publish packages, so it's not too difficult to have this documented as part of a general Linebender publishing guide. Also as it stands now I think I might be the only Linebender publisher who actually publishes on Windows.

Although yeah even others who don't have symlinks enabled may find it tricky to open the files.

IMO needing special instructions for windows is reason e ough not to use symlinks. I reckon we should just duplicate the file. These files are tiny anyway.

xStrom commented 2 months ago

Alright I removed the symlinks and went with standard files.
