fix: restore canonical Apache-2.0 license text - #2
Merged
Conversation
The LICENSE body deviated from the official text at https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt in three places: §1 'submitted to the Licensor' -> 'submitted to Licensor' §1 'received by the Licensor' -> 'received by Licensor' §4 'excluding any notices' -> 'excluding those notices' A modified Apache-2.0 is strictly no longer Apache-2.0, which makes the 'Apache-2.0' SPDX identifier inaccurate. GitHub's license detector matches fuzzily, so it reported Apache-2.0 regardless and the drift went unnoticed. Body text is now byte-identical to the official license. Layout and the copyright line are unchanged.

Restores the
LICENSEbody to the official Apache-2.0 text. Three phrases had drifted:A modified Apache-2.0 is strictly no longer Apache-2.0, which makes the
Apache-2.0SPDX identifier inaccurate. License detection is fuzzy and reports Apache-2.0 either way, so the drift went unnoticed.Layout and the copyright line are unchanged — the diff is exactly three lines.
