docs(license): restore license to GNU AGPL #196

After some weeks of thoughts, I have made the decision to revert #182 and come back to GNU Affero General Public License.

The main reason for this is that the AGPL reinforces the code sharing obligations of the GNU GPL, especially in the case that the software is run on a server.
When I read it again I don't get the impression that the CeCILL license applies to this case (it only talks about the case of distributing modified software), whereas the GNU AGPL does (section 6b of the license).
This is important to me in order to avoid some misuse of Kosmorro because of the visibility it seems to be starting to get (actually I didn't expect that one day one of my projects would get it).

I hope this revert will not be a problem for anyone.
