Add LICENSE.GPL for colors.rs

[michel-slm]

colors.rs is generated by calling GNU coreutils' dircolors, and contains its license header. Bundle the license file as required, and document this in README.md

To test, first comment out the dependency on uucore, since the required colors feature is not in 0.0.23. Then:

I am not a lawyer but it is a list of configuration parameters for compatibility purpose, not code

https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/blob/main/src/uucore/src/lib/features/colors.rs

not the case anymore since https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/5611/files

note: a quick search shows that these data can be found in many different places, licenses and languages

oh, excellent, thanks!

[sylvestre]

welcome :)

[michel-slm]

@sylvestre should the README.md be deleted then? https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/blob/main/src/uu/dircolors/README.md -- it still mentions running GNU dircolors until the tests pass

[sylvestre]

sure, i forgot about this file :)
