docs: import upstream GPLv2 driver license
Copy src/LICENSE verbatim from radxa-pkg/aic8800 commit 969601fd69b5c33f965558c9e90633067733e8c1 and document its provenance. Upstream copyright metadata assigns GPL-2 to driver sources and the same license to driver patches; GPL-3+ applies to Radxa packaging. Refs #101. Validation: byte-for-byte upstream license comparison and git diff --check.
