FYI: change logs with permissive license

[Ralf Wildenhues]

Following Paul's patch to Autoconf, I'm installing this in Automake,
HEAD and branch-1-10.

I'm waiting for the license clarification feedback before doing any of
the GPL notice changes like removing the address and so on.

Cheers,
Ralf

        In ChangeLog files, use more-permissive notice rather than GPL,
        as per usual GNU standards these days.
