Rationalise and correct license information

[delphidabbler]

Move all information from the plethora of LICENSE files into Docs/License.html.

Update reference to jQuery source file name - license refers to wrong version.

Summary of each LICENSE file

Root directory

Licensing of CodeSnip's source and image files is on a per file basis. There are two ways that license information can be found:

1. By examining comments within source files. License information will be at or near the beginning of the file.

2. By reading any LICENSE file that exists in the same directory as the files you are interested in, or if no such file exists, in a parent directory. The "nearest" LICENSE file takes precedence. A LICENSE file is used to provide license information for source files that have no (or unclear) embedded information and for images and other files that do not have human-readable content.

Docs directory

All files governed by MPL 2.0. Applies to all subdirectories.
