The CNCF requires that we adopt either Snyk or Fossa for license scanning. We tried Snyk, but it wasn't ideal - it bundles security and license scanning, and both were high-noise.

Fossa is much lower-noise. This project is already onboarded through the Fossa UI, with a clean bill of health. This PR contains some finishing touches:

  • Adding a badge to the README
  • Adding a license check to PRs

Badge the README to show that we're complying with all the CNCF's
license checks.

The Fossa action is currently failing with permissions problems. I've reached out to our CNCF contacts to understand what we're supposed to do here.

IIUC, we are now using Snyk, so we can close this.
@akshayjshah, correct me if I am mistaken and I will re-open.

Correction: we are using Fossa (not Snyk), but we decided that we don't need the badges.
