Fix copyright as this is an infringement of the license #16

It seems you have replace all instances of @Monero-Project for uPlexa in every file and this is an infringement of Monero's codebase license. By replacing the license, you have broken the copyright laws.

Solution to resolve issue

// Copyright (c) 2018, uPlexa Team
//
// 
// All rights reserved.
// ...

should be replaced to

// Copyright (c) 2018, uPlexa Team
// Copyright (c) 2014-2019, The Monero Project
// 
// All rights reserved.
// ...

I would also update the year as you possibly have up-streamed Monero commits.

Hi @LithyRiolu Thank you very much for bringing up this issue.

As I understand it, you also cannot simply claim copyright for code you have not touched. There are many files you haven't touched, other than adding your copyright claim on them.

Thanks @jtgrassie that was something I was unaware of. I apologize on behalf of the developers of uPlexa for those changes having been made. I have gone ahead and removed all uPlexa Copyright claims from all files in which were not modified by the uPlexa team: e1e25cb6ea25f75115c1e020a052221b1f0bf4ee
