Update the GPL2 text to the latest revision
This patch replaces the GPL2 text with the latest one from: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt The FSF moved to a different location quite a while ago already, and the latest revision recommends to use the LGPL-2.1 ("Lesser" license) instead of the LGPL-2.0 ("Library" license) in certain cases.
