[eigen] Proceeding with the MPL2 relicensing now!

[Benoit Jacob <jacob.benoit.1@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi List,

Below is the final update on the contributor agreements.

Aside from 3rd-party code, there remain only about 50 changesets
without relicensing approval, they all seem to be from contributors
who contributed at most 2 changesets to Eigen, and 50 changesets is
about only 1% of the total.

Speaking of 3rd-party code, here is what we have identified as being
3rdparty code without MPL2 relicensing approval:
1. Eigen/src/OrderingMethods/Amd.h
2. Eigen/src/SparseCholesky/SimplicialCholesky.h
3. unsupported/Eigen/src/IterativeSolvers/ConstrainedConjGrad.h
4. unsupported/Eigen/src/IterativeSolvers/IterationController.h
5. the MINPACK code, for now (might be OK --- see discussion in other
thread --- but let's not assume that it's OK for now)

The plan is to have a EIGEN_MPL2_ONLY mode where this
non-MPL2-acceptable 3rdparty code is disabled.

List of contributors, tracking who gave their agreement to relicense to MPL2.

Legend:

'X' means that the contributor publicly agreed to relicense all
his/her contributions to MPL2
'dupe' means that the entry is a duplicate, the contributor is already
listed in an earlier entry.

First, the easy case where the author is correctly recorded as the
changeset author (the numbers are numbers of changesets):

replied to the thread: worth keeping track of, either they weren't
correctly credited for their contributions but legally they still have
copyright, or their patches haven't been applied but might be in the
future.
