Summary

Align the repository's Apache 2.0 and DCO materials with NVIDIA open-source policy, correct missing or malformed SPDX attribution, and close gaps in the license-header checker.

Related Issue

No issue required: this is a mechanical license-compliance correction with no product behavior change.

Changes

  • Add the NVIDIA copyright notice and restore the standard Apache 2.0 appendix in LICENSE
  • Include the full Developer Certificate of Origin 1.1 text in CONTRIBUTING.md
  • Correct malformed SPDX copyright lines and add headers to the affected deployment, script, Helm, and SDK files
  • Add REUSE-compatible .license sidecars for strict JSON files that cannot contain comments
  • Extend the license-header checker to validate the complete NVIDIA SPDX header and cover previously skipped source formats

Testing

  • mise run pre-commit passes
  • mise run helm:test passes (153 tests)
  • Shell, JavaScript, and JSON syntax validation passes
  • E2E tests added/updated (not applicable; no runtime behavior changed)

Checklist

  • Follows Conventional Commits
  • Commits are signed off (DCO)
  • Architecture docs updated (not applicable; no architecture changed)
