the LICENSE.md needs to be updated to correctly reference the project as MetaCrate and the copyright starts from 2026 and is with rfc1437 - this is a full rewrite and so old copyrights do not apply. we should add a section, though, that it is based on libremetaverse and put the copyright holders of that in there, so it is clear we are based on work of others.

Implemented and pushed in commit e2889d7. LICENSE.md now identifies MetaCrate itself as Copyright (c) 2026, rfc1437, names MetaCrate in BSD clause 3, and moves the historical openmetaverse.co and Sjofn LLC notices into a dedicated LibreMetaverse attribution section with the pinned upstream license provenance. Review confirmed that inherited copyrights no longer appear in the MetaCrate license header and that both upstream holders remain explicitly credited. Gates passed: mapping and shim determinism checks, git diff --check, cargo fmt, workspace cargo check, workspace test compile (--no-run), workspace clippy with -D warnings, and workspace docs.
