Summary

Relicense this module to GPL-3.0 and add SPDX license headers to source files.

Changes

  • Replace the old license file with LICENSE.md (GPL-3.0)
  • Update license references in documentation (where applicable)
  • Add SPDX headers to source files
  • Mark source files as GPL-3.0-or-later

Rationale

To ensure compatibility with third-party dependencies under licenses
incompatible with GPL-2.0-only (such as Apache-2.0), Icinga Web and its module
ecosystem are being relicensed to GPL-3.0-only.

Source files are labeled GPL-3.0-or-later to preserve the option to relicense
under later GPL versions.
