Contribution description

This PR moves license information from headers to SPDX format for files from examples directory.

Most work for .c and .h files is done using @N11cc00 script.
Not so common files - Python, Rust, Lua and .sh are serviced manually.

I added MIT and LGPL-3.0 license files - remaining LGPL-2.1 will be added in PR #21516.

One file with custom license is untouched - examples/networking/misc/sniffer/tools/sniffer.py.

Testing procedure

Review changed files.

@crasbe Thanks for spotting the issue with missing Copyright lines.

The problem with current script appears when next lines do not contain Copyright word.
When each line contains this word everything works fine, I tested script for example in 'boards/adafruit-feather-nrf52840-sence` and all lines are added to SPDX. Next time I looked carefully at this issue.
