This installs the new developer policy and moves all of the license files across all LLVM projects in the monorepo to the new license structure. The remaining projects will be moved independently. Note that I've left odd formatting and other idiosyncracies of the legacy license structure text alone to make the diff easier to read. Critically, note that we do not in any case *remove* the old license notice or terms, as that remains necessary until we finish the relicensing process. I've updated a few license files that refer to the LLVM license to instead simply refer generically to whatever license the LLVM project is under, basically trying to minimize confusion. This is really the culmination of so many people. Chris led the community discussions, drafted the policy update and organized the multi-year string of meeting between lawyers across the community to figure out the strategy. Numerous lawyers at companies in the community spent their time figuring out initial answers, and then the Foundation's lawyer Heather Meeker has done *so* much to help refine and get us ready here. I could keep going on, but I just want to make sure everyone realizes what a huge community effort this has been from the begining.
