Changes the license to LGPL-v2 or later after a re-reading of the `eudev` license. After discussion in kevinmehall/nusb#5 (comment), and reviewing the terms of LGPL, it seems required to also license `udevrs` under LGPL. `udevrs` is a very close translation of `eudev`. Regardless of how much the project changes to be more idiomatic Rust, it will always have its roots as a port of `eudev`. IANAL, so to keep things simple let's just use the same license.
