Add Peer Production License (copyfarleft)
Apply the Peer Production License to the macha-autonomous codebase. The PPL is a copyfarleft license that restricts commercial use to worker-owned cooperatives and collectives, preventing exploitation by for-profit companies that use wage labor. This aligns with the commons-based peer production model and ensures that the fruits of this work benefit worker-owned entities and the broader commons, not extractive capitalist enterprises. Key changes: - Add LICENSE file with full Peer Production License text - Update README.md with license information and usage guidelines - Clarify that worker cooperatives can use commercially - Restrict for-profit wage-labor companies from commercial use For more info: https://wiki.p2pfoundation.net/Peer_Production_License
