This PR updates Elayne's licensing from GPL v2 to GPL v3, bringing the theme in line with modern WordPress ecosystem standards and providing enhanced patent protection and stronger copyleft provisions. The change affects core theme documentation files including version headers, copyright notices, and license text, ensuring full compliance with GPL v3 requirements across all user-facing and developer-facing documentation. This is a significant legal and administrative update that improves the theme's compatibility with GPL v3 plugins and provides clearer licensing terms for commercial and open-source use cases. All changes maintain backward compatibility while strengthening the theme's open-source foundation.
