            [bugfix] Correct License to 'GPL-2.0-only WITH Universal-FOSS-exception-1.0'

The previous SPDX expression '(MIT OR GPL-2.0-only) AND GPL-2.0-only
AND BSD-2-Clause' was a mechanical Callaway conversion from the legacy
tag 'GPLv2 with exceptions'. The "exceptions" referred to Oracle's
Universal FOSS Exception — not MIT or BSD-2-Clause components.

Analysis of the 26.7.0 source (also applies to 8.0.33):
- 'LICENSE.txt' explicitly states "version 2 of the GNU General Public
  License (GPLv2)" with an "Election of GPLv2" clause (GPL-2.0-only,
  not -or-later) and "Universal FOSS Exception, version 1.0".
- All 275 source files (.py, .c, .cc, .h, .proto) carry the identical
  Oracle header referencing GPL-2.0 + Universal FOSS Exception 1.0.
- No MIT, BSD, or Apache licensed code is shipped. The third-party
  licenses listed in 'LICENSE.txt' (Cyrus SASL, DNSPython, protobuf,
  GSSAPI, Kerberos5) are for external dependencies, not bundled code.
