Since `src/context.rs` appears to be derived from https://github.com/google/brotli/blob/v1.1.0/c/common/context.c (possibly at a different version), and carries only MIT terms, it’s not possible for the crate to be `BSD-3-Clause OR MIT` overall. The new `LICENSE.MIT` file is taken from https://github.com/google/brotli/raw/refs/tags/v1.1.0/LICENSE since that appears to be the correct license text for `context.rs`. Fixes dropbox#9.
