In the CSEG meeting today, it was mentioned that UCAR legal would like us to move to: Apache-2.0, MIT or BSD3

There's also a copyright on this file: [docs/source/conf.py](https://github.com/ESCOMP/mizuRoute/blob/be8db1f8f70309ea1877645faaea43fbf8db1800/docs/source/conf.py#L23) That should be changed to copyright UCAR.

@ShervanGharari @bartnijssen @Ivanderkelen @wknoben we wanted to bring your attention to this issue. We need to change the license from GPL to Apache-2.0. We'll need permission from each of you...

Adding @tilmes @lkemmons to the discussion. Note, that we talked about this over email with Louisa, Simone, Francis, Will, and Sam R. in the context of CTSM in https://github.com/ESCOMP/CTSM/issues/2734 on...
