Include license in Go module

[shps951023]

Summary

• add the Apache 2.0 license inside the minipdf-go submodule
• allow pkg.go.dev to classify the module as redistributable and display API documentation

Context

minipdf-go/v0.1.0 is available from the Go module proxy, but pkg.go.dev hides its documentation because repository-root license files are not included in a submodule archive. After merge, a minipdf-go/v0.1.1 tag will publish the corrected module archive.

Validation

• verified standard Apache 2.0 license markers
• git diff --check

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Added an Apache License 2.0 file with copyright attribution.
