Consider changing license to one that is less ambiguous about binary attribution #13

The project is currently licensed as MIT, which honestly is a bad suggestion on GitHub's part. While it has the code attribution you want and is a decently permissive open-source license, many readers of it believe that it requires attribution in binaries as well, which precludes it from being implemented in, say, NVGT. Ambiguities like this are why the Boost Software License was created, which specifically exempts binaries, but zlib would also be just fine.

I also do offer ZLib or Boost license.
