…ADME rewrite
The repo is now the canonical home of MobilityAPI but was missing
several artefacts that ecosystem-grade org repos carry:
1. **LICENSE.txt** — The PostgreSQL License, matching the
MobilityDB main project's licence posture. Without this,
the repository was effectively all-rights-reserved by
default. Copyright Université libre de Bruxelles and
MobilityAPI contributors.
2. **CONTRIBUTING.md** — Development setup, test instructions
(./run.sh, ./run.sh --with-tests), code-style conventions
(PEP 8 + ruff), PR conventions. Cross-references AUTHORS.md
and the lineage section in the README.
3. **.github/workflows/python.yml** — Stub CI:
- Lint job: ruff check on PRs (warning-only at this stage so
legacy code isn't blocked; tighten when codebase has been
once-through).
- Import-smoke-test job: imports each application module so
a minimal "code is at least loadable" gate runs on PRs.
No DB-integration tests at this stage; that's a separate
GitHub Actions service-container effort once the test
harness stabilises.
4. **.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/{bug,feature}.md** + **PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md**
— issue / PR scaffolding. Bug template asks for environment
info; feature template prompts for OGC-spec references.
5. **README rewrite** — restructured for canonical-home framing:
- Added badges (License, Python, OGC API conformance).
- Lead with what MobilityAPI is (HTTP / OGC layer of the MEOS
ecosystem) rather than the bare introduction.
- Added a Status section pointing at issues + discussions.
- Added a "Where MobilityAPI fits" section showing peer SQL
layers (MobilityDB / MobilityDuck) and language bindings.
- Cross-link to https://libmeos.org/bindings/mobilityapi/.
- Added Contributing section pointing at CONTRIBUTING.md.
- Fixed "Pyhton" / "Developement" typos and the orphaned
##Poetry section. Final License section points at LICENSE.txt
and CITATION.cff.
- Lineage section (PR #1) preserved unchanged.

Summary
This PR adds artefacts that ecosystem-grade org repos in MobilityDB carry but that the repo was previously missing. They land as one coordinated bundle on top of the lineage-credit work in PR #1.
