4bff655952 doc: add a Git guide and fix addconsoletrace typo
Add doc/git-guide.md, a single entry point for the practical Git
knowledge needed to contribute to OAI, consolidating the how-tos
that were scattered across the documentation:

- Setting up commit signing: moved from CONTRIBUTING.md, which keeps
  the normative DCO/Verified requirements and links to the guide; led
  by a compact SSH recipe, with the allowed_signers troubleshooting
  and a note on repository-level configuration for shared servers.
- Managing your own branch: moved from code-style-contrib.md, which
  keeps the workflow policy and links to the guide; mentions git
  switch and covers fixup commits with git rebase --autosquash,
  including the --fixup=amend:<commit> variant.
- Working with submodules: the update command and the unintended
  submodule-pointer-update pitfall seen in past PRs.
- Recovering from mistakes: git restore --staged, git restore,
  git reset --soft/--hard, and git reflog.
- Reusing conflict resolutions with git rerere: enabling, typical
  flow, inspecting, seeding from existing history, sharing the cache,
  and caveats, clarifying that contribution branches must keep a
  linear history while forks may carry merge commits.

The guide is referenced from doc/README.md (Developer tools),
code-style-contrib.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md. Guidance coupled to its
own document is cross-linked instead of moved: clang-format.md
(pre-commit hook), GET_SOURCES.md (branch and tag model), and
doc_best_practices.md (docs: commit prefix).

Also fix a typo in the T tracer addconsoletrace documentation.

8107939f08 Change OAI license to CSSL v1.0 (and others)
- all RAN code, CI code, configuration files, dockerfiles, in CSSL v1.0
- all deployment code (openshift, charts, ancillary files like shell
  scripts), in MIT
- documentation in CC-BY-4.0
- exceptions might apply and are listed in NOTICE
- there is a new LICENSES folder with all licenses
- CONTRIBUTIONS.md has been updated accordingly

For automated changes based on OAI PL v1.1:

    perl -i~ -0pe 's/\/\*.*Licensed to the OpenAirInterface.*openairinterface.org\n#?/\/*\n * SPDX-License-Identifier: LicenseRef-CSSL-1.0\n/s' **/*.{c,h,cpp}
    perl -i~ -0pe 's/\/\*.*Licensed to the OpenAirInterface.*openairinterface.org\n#?/\/*\n * SPDX-License-Identifier: LicenseRef-CSSL-1.0\n/s' **/*.ts
    perl -i~ -0pe 's/<!--.*Licensed to the OpenAirInterface.*openairinterface.org\n.*-->/<!-- SPDX-License-Identifier: LicenseRef-CSSL-1.0 -->/s' **/*.xml

The rest (cmake, files with missing license, cmake) manually.
