Bug#969159: Bug#891978: License of photoswipe

[Dmytro Semenov]

PhotoSwipe author here, thanks for looping me in on the discussion.

You are correct - the old clause in v4 was poorly worded and I'm glad it
was removed in v5 to avoid this kind of confusion.
I'm also currently working on v6 and core of it will also be distributed
under MIT license.

If you need some help with integration - feel free to email me directly.
