legal: bundle third-party licenses on the ISO; stop shipping doom1.wad

- New 0:/os/licenses/ directory on the ISO with GPL-3.0.txt (Flat Remix
  icon theme), GPL-2.0.txt (doomgeneric DOOM engine), and NOTICES.txt
  (mirrors montaukos.org/THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt).
- THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt gains a Flat Remix section (GPLv3, attribution,
  modification and corresponding-source statements; the shipped SVGs are
  the source form).
- man legal now lists third-party components and points at 0:/os/licenses/.
- doom1.wad removed from the repo and the build: the shareware WAD is
  proprietary id Software content. doom.elf (GPLv2) still ships; users
  must supply their own WAD.

domain. id Software's shareware terms permit free, non-commercial redistribution
of the unmodified shareware WAD, but do not grant rights for commercial
distribution or modification. If MontaukOS is ever distributed commercially, the
shareware WAD should be removed and replaced with a freely licensed alternative
(e.g. the Freedoom project's freedoom1.wad / freedoom2.wad, released under a
BSD-style license), or distributed only with id Software's permission. The
registered/commercial DOOM WADs (e.g. doom.wad, doom2.wad) are separate

5. Flat Remix (icon theme)
================================================================================
The MontaukOS desktop and applications use icons from the Flat Remix icon theme
by Daniel Ruiz de Alegria. MontaukOS ships a curated subset of the theme
(renamed and reorganized for MontaukOS) in SVG form on the ISO (0:/icons/ and
per-application icon files).
