docs: use verbatim Apache-2.0 license text

[dan2k3k4]

Problem

LICENSE contained a paraphrased and truncated copy of the Apache License 2.0 rather than the canonical text:

• 1247 words vs 1581 in the canonical text
• The entire APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work section was missing
• Clauses were dropped mid-sentence, e.g. §8 was missing "whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise" and §9 was missing "consistent with this License"

GitHub's license detection (licensee) matches by fuzzy hash, so it could not identify the license and reported the repo as NOASSERTION / "Other":

$ gh api repos/amazeeio/amazee.ai --jq .license
{"key":"other","name":"Other","spdx_id":"NOASSERTION"}

That blocks anything keyed off an OSI-approved license being detected — including our free Greptile reviews.

Change

Replaced LICENSE with the canonical Apache-2.0 text verbatim (gh api /licenses/apache-2.0). No change to the licensing intent — the file already said Apache-2.0, it just wasn't a faithful copy.

The APPENDIX copyright line is left as the standard Copyright [yyyy] [name of copyright owner] placeholder, which is how most Apache-2.0 repos ship it and does not affect detection. Happy to fill in "amazee.io" if preferred.

Verifying

Detection only re-runs against the default branch, so gh api repos/amazeeio/amazee.ai --jq .license should report apache-2.0 once this merges to dev.

Greptile Summary

This PR replaces a paraphrased, truncated copy of the Apache License 2.0 with the canonical verbatim text sourced from gh api /licenses/apache-2.0, fixing GitHub's licensee detection which previously reported the repo as NOASSERTION / "Other". There are no changes to code, configuration, or licensing intent.

• The canonical text restores the missing APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work section, missing definition language in §1 (the "submitted" definition for "Contribution"), and missing clause fragments in §§5, 8, and 9.
• The APPENDIX copyright placeholder is left as Copyright [yyyy] [name of copyright owner], which is the standard convention and does not affect license detection.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — this is a pure text replacement of the LICENSE file with no code changes whatsoever.

The change restores the verbatim Apache 2.0 text to fix GitHub license detection. No code, configuration, or logic is touched. The new text matches the canonical Apache-2.0 source and adds back the clauses and APPENDIX that were previously missing.

No files require special attention. The only changed file is LICENSE, and the replacement text is the well-known canonical Apache 2.0 license.
