Relicense under PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0

Switches the project from Apache-2.0 to PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0.
Use, modification, redistribution, forking and contribution are all
permitted; the only thing the new license withholds is commercial sale
of the software or of services built primarily around it.

Updates: LICENSE file, workspace Cargo license metadata, the Python
pyproject classifier and SPDX field, and the Node package.json. The
README now explains the practical scope in plain English.
