Transaction Science a5353e6f32 The root NOTICE claims only what the tree holds
WAI's entry said a vendored file states its terms in its header or a LICENSE
file beside it. The tree disproves that: some vendored vectors state theirs
in a README, and the tree-sitter headers state none. The sentence is gone;
third-party material keeps its own terms, and the TweetNaCl source stays
named as public domain.

It also said a corpus input not made here is named with its source. Some
have no recorded source, the third-party picture behind video_real among
them. An input is now described in its corpus's provenance line or README,
with its source and licence where they are recorded.
