Add GPL-3.0 license
LICENSE is the exact, unmodified canonical text from gnu.org (fetched directly, verified byte-identical via checksum before adding - a license file is exactly the kind of text where reproducing it from memory risks a subtle, avoidable error, so it wasn't worth the risk when the authoritative source is one curl away). Per the GPL's own guidance, the license document itself stays verbatim; the copyright notice goes separately in README instead of scattered across every source file's header, keeping this a one-place, low-noise addition rather than a 30-file mechanical edit nobody asked for. GPL-3.0 chosen deliberately for a security tool: it keeps derivatives open (a vendor can't take community security tooling proprietary), which is a common and well-regarded choice in that specific community. Doesn't foreclose monetization either - as sole copyright holder, dual-licensing the code commercially to others separately from the public GPL release remains available, and the choice itself stays changeable in the future for the same reason: relicensing only gets hard once other people's copyrighted contributions are in the codebase, which isn't the case here yet.
