This series tries to improve the licensing situation of libgpiod before we
proceed with v2.0.

The first patch is rather uncotroversial: it makes the project compliant
with the REUSE v3.0 specification.

Next two patches propose to change the licenses for certain files:
non-library source files are relicensed under GPL-2.0-or-later while C++
library code's license is upgraded to LGPL-3.0-or-later.

The only person other than myself who contributed significant code to the
relicensed files is Kent Gibson (Cc'ed) so these patches will need his
ack.

Bartosz Golaszewski (3):
  licensing: make the project REUSE-compliant
  licensing: relicense non-library code under GPL-2.0-or-later
  licensing: relicense C++ library code under LGPL-3.0-or-later
LooksGoodToMe thanks for paying so much attention to detail here,
licenses give me migraine.
