Mauro Carvalho Chehab e7121ab405 media: docs: fix some GPL licensing ambiguity at the text
Those files are meant to be dual GPL 2.0 and GFDL without
implicit sections. However, by a wrong cut-and-paste, I ended
by applying a GPL 2+ license text to it, while still using the
GPL 2.0 SPDX tag, with would cause an ambiguity about the
licensing model.

Solve this by explicitly mentioning that the dual licensing
is between GPL 2.0 and GFDL and correcting the text.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab a7c3a0d5f8 media: mediactl docs: Fix licensing message
Right now, it mentions two SPDX headers that don't exist inside the Kernel:
	GFDL-1.1-or-later
And an exception:
	no-invariant-sections

While it would be trivial to add the first one, there's no way,
currently, to distinguish, with SPDX, between a free and a non-free
document under GFDL.

Free documents with GFDL should not have invariant sections.

There's an open issue at SPDX tree waiting for it to be solved.
While we don't have this issue closed, let's just replace by a
free-text license, and add a TODO note to remind us to revisit it
later.
