Subject: xz: switch from public domain to BSD Zero Clause License (0BSD)
Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2024 16:36:18 +0300

Remove the public domain notices and add SPDX license identifiers.

Change MODULE_LICENSE from "GPL" to "Dual BSD/GPL" because 0BSD should
count as a BSD license variant here.

The switch to 0BSD was done in the upstream XZ Embedded project because
public domain has (real or perceived) legal issues in some jurisdictions.
