general: add COPYING file

This is needed for some distributions to accept the library as GPL.

Release team asked for a release of autoar. Commiting harmless outstanding patches required for a release.

Comment 3 Ting-Wei Lan 2016-09-02 03:18:10 UTC
The license of gnome-autoar is LGPL 2+, not GPL 2+. I think we can simply use LGPL 2.1+ to avoid confusion.

general: Use the correct COPYING file

The correct license of this project is LGPLv2.1+, not GPLv2+.
This commit also corrects the version used in source files.
Comment 5 Carlos Soriano 2016-09-02 08:09:50 UTC
Indeed, sorry for that.
Comment 6 Carlos Soriano 2016-09-02 19:57:50 UTC
Let's commit this so we can make a new release with the right licence
