Fix license file formatting to be machine readable
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It was brought to our attention[1] that the Tern license file was not using
a standard BSD-2 license text and notice which was making it difficult
for compliance tooling to parse. This commit updates the license file to
use the standard text for the BSD 2-Clause license[2]
