Add MIT LICENSE#17
Conversation
Required for the winget submission (Microsoft's manifest validators expect a license URL pointing at the source-of-truth license file) and for general open-source hygiene — without one, the repo is effectively all-rights-reserved by default and downstream packagers can't redistribute. MIT chosen as the lightest permissive option that matches how the project's already being shared (public GitHub repo, free download, no contributor agreement). Year and holder match the <Copyright> field already in ScreenSound.csproj.

Summary
LICENSEfile at the repo root.<Copyright>field already declared inScreenSound.csproj, so the assembly metadata and the license file are consistent.Why now
Two reasons:
Licensefield in the locale manifest and aLicenseUrlpointing at the source-of-truth file. Without aLICENSEin the repo, there's nothing to point at, so the firstwingetcreatesubmission fortwibster.ScreenSoundwill fail review.MIT was picked as the lightest permissive option that matches how the project is already being shared (public repo, free download, no CLA).
