Add Apache 2.0 license - #92

Conversation
Adds the canonical Apache License 2.0 text at the repo root and inside the published npm package directory, a NOTICE file with the LikeMinds copyright attribution, a License section in the package README, and switches the chat-rn-core package.json license field from ISC to Apache-2.0. The LICENSE files are byte-identical to the text published at https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt so that GitHub and automated license scanners detect them correctly. The five sample apps in this repo are marked private and are not published to npm, so their package.json files are left unchanged; they are covered by the root LICENSE.

The root
LICENSEis what GitHub reads to show the repository's license badge. But npm packsonly the files inside
likeminds-chat-reactnative-integration/, so the root file would notreach npm consumers. Both are needed and both are byte-identical. This is standard practice
for a monorepo that publishes a subdirectory.
The five sample apps are intentionally untouched

The LICENSE files are byte-identical to https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt

Copyright [yyyy] [name of copyright owner]placeholder in theAppendix. That placeholder is part of the Appendix's instructions for applying the license,
not this repo's copyright notice. Editing the text causes GitHub and license scanners to
report the license as "Other" instead of "Apache-2.0". The repo's own copyright notice lives
in
NOTICE.The
package.jsonchange matters as much as the LICENSE file. npm consumers' licensescanners read the registry metadata, not this repo. It takes effect on the next published
version only;
1.10.0and earlier keepISCon npm permanently.This is a relicense from ISC to Apache 2.0. Every contributor to this repo appears to be
LikeMinds staff, so this should be an internal decision, but please confirm before merging.
Context: this is one of three
This repo is public, but both of its dependencies are private. Licensing this repo alone does
not make the React Native chat SDK usable as open source. Companion PRs:
Those two repos must also be made public (a separate decision, not done by any of these PRs).
Flagged, not changed
This repo has no root
README.md. One would normally carry the License section and explainthe monorepo layout. Not added here to avoid inventing project documentation.
