Fix cosmetic variations in copyrights and license files (flutter#3730)

stuartmorgan · web-flow · commit 6047b3f1bbb9 · 2021-03-18T13:28:44.000-07:00
- Replaces "the Flutter project authors" with the repo-standard version "The Flutter Authors"
  - Updates the license check not to allow "the Flutter project authors" in the future
- Fixes a few minor cosmetic variations that had crept back into LICENSE files since my
  mass-standardization of those files.
  - Updates the license check to validate those to prevent such drift in the future.
