Update license (#788)

After some internal discussion, we decided to change the project license to MIT. I have already talked with most contributors privately, and none of them are against the change. Still, if you're a contributor and you're against the change, feel free to voice your concerns here.

Obviously, any code before the license change can be still used under the terms of the old license. But any new code after the change will be under the terms of the new license.
