This removes the references to the GPL licenses as this license is not included in the gemspec of the project. This ensures that tools such as Fossa are not generating false positives for using GPL licenses in Apache licensed projects. Note the license file also refers to the GPL file which doesn't exist.

The (original) Ruby license is a dual-license of the Ruby's original license (that is described in LICENSE.rdoc) and GPL.

FYI: The current Ruby license is a dual-license of the Ruby's original license and BSD-2-Clause.

If we remove the GPL part, it means that we change our license. (Single-license not dual-license)
