Add contributor license agreement. (#1556)

This PR adds a contributor license agreement (CLA) to the project.
Contributors will need to sign the CLA before we merge their PRs. This
will be handled automatically via a bot here on GitHub.

## Context

Did you know tldraw is a [venture
backed](https://tldraw.substack.com/p/tiny-little-seed-round) company?
Our CLA is designed to protect our options for any future re-licensing
of the project's code or transferring ownership, which can become
complicated when taking public contributions community, but which can
become necessary by fate and/or go to market strategies.

A CLA adds a bit of friction and hassle for contributors, however I'd
prefer to be upfront about our relationship rather than doing what many
open source projects have done in the past, which is relicensing code
contributed without such prior agreement.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them below.

<h2>Contributor License Agreement</h2>
<h4>Version 1.0 June 8th 2023</h4>
<p>
In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with Contributions from any
person, tldraw, Inc. (tldraw) must have a Contributor License Agreement on file that has
been signed by each contributor, indicating agreement to the license terms below. This
license is for Your protection as a contributor as well as the protection of tldraw; it
does not change your rights to use Your own contributions for any other purpose.
</p>
<p>
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your Contributions (present
and future) that you submit to tldraw. Except for the license granted herein to tldraw,
You reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.{' '}
</p>
<p>1. Definitions. </p>
<p>"You" (or "Your") means the individual identified above. </p>
<p>
"Contribution" means any original work of authorship, including any modifications or
additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to tldraw for
inclusion in, or documentation of, any of the products owned or managed by tldraw (each, a
"Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic,
verbal, or written communication sent to tldraw or its representatives, including but not
limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and
issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, tldraw for the purpose of
discussing and improving the Works, but excluding communication that is conspicuously
marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."{' '}
</p>
<p>
2. Grant of Copyright License. You hereby grant to tldraw a perpetual, worldwide,
non-exclusive, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), no-charge, royalty-free,
irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of, publicly display,
publicly perform, distribute, and otherwise exploit Your Contributions and such derivative
works.{' '}
</p>
<p>
3. Grant of Patent License. You hereby grant to tldraw a perpetual, worldwide,
non-exclusive, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), no-charge, royalty-free,
irrevocable patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and
otherwise transfer and exploit the Works, where such license applies only to those patent
claims licensable by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or
by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Works to which such Contribution(s) was
submitted.{' '}
</p>
<p>
4. You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above license. If your
employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that you create that includes your
Contributions, you represent that you have received permission to make Contributions on
behalf of that employer, that your employer has waived in writing any rights it may have
in Your Contributions to tldraw, or that your employer has executed a separate Corporate
CLA with tldraw.{' '}
</p>
<p>
5. You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation and does not
incorporate any material created by others. You represent that Your Contribution
submissions include complete details of any patents or copyrights which are associated
with any part of Your Contributions.{' '}
</p>
<p>
6. You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except to the extent
You desire to provide support. You may provide support for free, for a fee, or not at all.
Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing, You provide Your Contributions
on an "as is" basis, without warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or
implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of title,
non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose.{' '}
</p>
<p>
7. You agree to notify tldraw of any facts or circumstances of which you become aware (now
or in the future) that would make Your representations in this Agreement inaccurate in any
respect.
</p>
<p>
8. You acknowledge that tldraw owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Works.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, tldraws subsidiary, tldraw GB limited (the Subsidiary),
is the beneficial owner of the Works, and tldraw will sublicense its rights in your
Contributions under this Agreement to the Subsidiary in furtherance of the Subsidiarys
status as beneficial owner of the Works.
</p>
<p>
9. This Agreement is governed by the laws of Delaware, and the parties consent to
exclusive jurisdiction in the courts sitting in Delaware. The parties waive all defenses
of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non-conveniens.
</p>
<p>
10. Entire Agreement/Assignment. This Agreement is the entire agreement between the
parties, and supersedes any and all prior agreements, understandings or communications,
written or oral, between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement
may be assigned by tldraw without Your prior consent.{' '}
