Also update license to LGPL, as lined in their homepage and included in the distribution tarballs.

Being able to link dynamically is important for LGPL libraries

  • Changes comply with the maintainer guide.
  • SHA512s are updated for each updated download.
  • The "supports" clause reflects platforms that may be fixed by this new version, or no changes were necessary.
  • Any fixed CI baseline and CI feature baseline entries are removed from that file, or no entries needed to be changed.
  • All patch files in the port are applied and succeed.
  • The version database is fixed by rerunning ./vcpkg x-add-version --all and committing the result.
  • Exactly one version is added in each modified versions file.
