Remove license excemption for PLPA and update GPL-2 license text
The Portable Linux Processor Affinity (PLPA) project has been depreciated in favour of the Portable Hardware Locality (hwloc) project. So the license exception present in previous versions of htop is obsolete and thus removed. The text of COPYING has been updated to the latest upstream license text of GPL-2 from the Free Software Foundation, Inc. (FSF). There are only editorial changes like line wrapping, removing page breaks, updating the "19yy" to "<year>" and changing the FSF address.
