In the midst of our migration of this project to Kubernetes SIGs and trying to get approved for inclusion of GPLv2 code we learned that a combination of GPLv2 + BSD-2-Clause licensing for eBPF code is currently allowed licensing for CNCF inclusion with precedents.

The purpose of this task is to update our licensing of the dataplane code from GPLv2 to GPLv2 + BSD-2-Clause to get our migration moving along.
