edit OrientDB license info so that GitHub recognizes it
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
GitHub uses a library called Licensee to identify a project's license
type. It shows this information in the status bar and via the API if it
can unambiguously identify the license.

This commit modifies a few of OrientDB's docs so that Licensee is able
to recognize the repository's license type.

Collectively, these changes allow Licensee to successfully identify the
license type of OrientDB as Apache 2.0.
