Explanation

Update LICENSE of wallet to match clients.

References

https://consensyssoftware.atlassian.net/browse/WPC-1255


Note

Medium Risk
License change materially restricts commercial use and redistribution compared to MIT/Apache; downstream consumers and legal review should treat this as a breaking compliance change even though code is unchanged.

Overview
Replaces the dual MIT/Apache-2.0 licensing for @metamask/wallet with the ConsenSys Non-Commercial Use license used elsewhere in the monorepo (e.g. client-aligned packages).

The root packages/wallet/LICENSE is rewritten to ConsenSys copyright and NC terms (attribution notice, MAU cap, commercial contact). LICENSE.MIT and LICENSE.APACHE2 are removed, and package.json license changes from (MIT OR Apache-2.0) to SEE LICENSE IN LICENSE.

No runtime or API code changes—only legal/metadata for npm and downstream compliance.

Nit: similar to the previously merged cryptography package should this be instead

A side question we are referring here to repository instead of package, does this means this is applied to all core packages ? Should we use “this package” ?
