Add license information to files for MX bridges
As the future for the MX bridges in this playbook and by themselves seems uncertain, this commit adds license information in SPDX format to the files for those bridges, before the bridges would be deprecated and possibly get removed from the project.

Please note that .license files are added for the files which would be broken if such information are added as header, following the REUSE's specification.

# Setting up MX Puppet Discord bridging (optional)
**Note**: bridging to [Discord](https://discordapp.com/) can also happen via the [matrix-appservice-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-discord.md)and [mautrix-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-discord.md) bridges supported by the playbook.
- For using as a Bot we recommend the [Appservice Discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-appservice-discord.md), because it supports plumbing.
- For personal use with a discord account we recommend the [mautrix-discord](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-discord.md) bridge, because it is the most fully-featured and stable of the 3 Discord bridges supported by the playbook.
The playbook can install and configure [mx-puppet-discord](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/discord/mx-puppet-discord) for you.
See the project's [documentation](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/discord/mx-puppet-discord/blob/master/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable the [Discord](https://discordapp.com/) bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_mx_puppet_discord_enabled: true
```
## Installing
After configuring the playbook, run it with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:
<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. -->
```sh
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,ensure-matrix-users-created,start
```
**Notes**:
- The `ensure-matrix-users-created` playbook tag makes the playbook automatically create the bot's user account.
- The shortcut commands with the [`just` program](just.md) are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed.
## Usage
To use the bridge, you need to start a chat with `Discord Puppet Bridge` with the handle `@_discordpuppet_bot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
Three authentication methods are available, Legacy Token, OAuth and xoxc token. See mx-puppet-discord [documentation](https://gitlab.com/mx-puppet/discord/mx-puppet-discord) for more information about how to configure the bridge.
Once logged in, send `list` to the bot user to list the available rooms.
Clicking rooms in the list will result in you receiving an invitation to the bridged room.
Send `help` to the bot to see the available commands.
