While reviewing various boilerplate headers for BSD licensed projects, I noticed that several Java source files under the ome-xml component include the terms of the GNU GPL 2 license in their header which is at odds with the component license.
This is most certainly an oversight which can be traced back to the original introduction of the unit concept for the 2015-01 release of the OME Data model in https://github.com/ome/bioformats/pull/1379.
This PR commits the changes after executing mvn license:update-file-header under the ome-xml component to fix the heders.
The only other notable difference is that the project name is updated from OME-XML Java library for working with OME-XML metadata structures. to OME XML library as per the POM file. If it is preferable to keep the existing header, happy to change the name in pom.xml
