Moving AtCore to Extragear

[Jonathan Riddell]

LICENSE file is normally named COPYING in KDE repos
More importantly the files are GPL 2 only, which isn't allowed in
KDE's licence policy.  It should be changed to GPL 2 or later (or as
approved by e.v.) https://community.kde.org/Policies/Licensing_Policy
LICENSE and README.md both say it uses LGPL, which isn't the case,
this should be made consistent.
