[Qgis-developer] Plugin licence

[Nathan Woodrow]

I'm sure you have much choice when it gets to GPL. Your plugin is still GPL
regardless. It does get a bit slippery once you include other libraries but
I think it's fine in this case.  They are all open source so no harm
really.

Same as use using GDAL with it being MIT
