Adrian Schmutzler 882e301461 LICENSES: include all used licenses in LICENSES directory
OpenWrt ships code not only licensed via GPL-2.0-{only,or-later}.
Reflect that by adding the missing licenses, just like the kernel
does.

This patch takes the license text as it is found in the Linux
kernel, which might probably be the best common denominator here.

In contrast to the kernel versions, only some changes to the
valid and recommended identifiers were made (GPL-x.x+ vs.
GPL-x.x-or-later and similar).

License-Text:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
Also note that the GPL below is copyrighted by the Free Software
Foundation, but the instance of code that it refers to (the Linux
kernel) is copyrighted by me and others who actually wrote it.
Also note that the only valid version of the GPL as far as the kernel
is concerned is _this_ particular version of the license (ie v2, not
v2.2 or v3.x or whatever), unless explicitly otherwise stated.
