This PR adds the LICENSE file to the list of files that are included in published crates.

The MIT License requires that a license text is shipped alongside any redistributed sources, for example, those redistributed via crates.io or linux distributions (see, for example, the explanation on choosealicense.org). Additionally, there are many recognised, slightly different variants of "the" MIT License (the Fedora Project recognises over 20 different variants here), so the only way to really distinguish those is by including the actual license text, as well.
