doc: add REUSE license information#1361

The original license text was moved to the LICENSES directory and the MIT license identifier was used since only encoding differences to the MIT license were present. Further, the existing copyright notice was moved to SPDX-FileCopyrightText and one for the TagStudio Contributors was added since the files are not entirely the same as the originals in the mkdocs-material project.
As stated on [Google Fonts](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Oxanium/license), this font is licensed under OFL-1.1.
This is possible because the Qt example this is based on can be licensed under BSD-3-Clause which is GPL-3.0 compatible.
Comparing our implementation with the one it is based on, they really don't have much more in common than the general idea of the implementation, which afaik can't be copyrighted.
We can plainly license this under GPL-3.0 according to https://www.blender.org/about/license/

Also note that I added explanations to quite a few commits, so going commit by commit in the review might be a good idea |

Summary
This PR adds license information according to the REUSE Specification in preparation for a push towards an MIT licensed core library.
The only files still missing license information are image files for the docs and in the qt resources. @CyanVoxel do you remember whether any of these images have external sources (meaning copyright holder isn't a contributor of TS and thus exact licensing situation has to be figured out)?Files that were missing license information
