[DRMAA-WG] drmaa_testsuite license

[Peter Tröger]

Hi Dominique,

thanks for all your support.

The licensing term were never finally clarified, and Sun no longer 
exists. I talked to some people, and it seems like the DRMAA working 
group can treat the code as its sole property.

For this reason, I just added a MIT license statement, which should be 
open enough for all possible use cases.

Thanks and best regards,
Peter.
