COPYRIGHTS: clarify licenses more, and add license for new contributions
- If new contributions are under CC0 we don't need to state that
people also agreed to use CC0 for new contributions.
- Before, I forgot to use git commit -a --amend before pushing, so
PKGBUILDs went in instead of packages. I'm using packages to enable
to add scripts (for instance scripts to check the licenses of the
PKGBUILDs) under other licenses. In addition many packages have more
files (like .install files for instance) than just PKGBUILDs and
patches, and the other packages files are also under the CC0
license.
