Update links in COPYING, COPYINGv3, and COPYING.EXCEPTION.
- COPYINGv3 now exactly matches
   https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt
   as of 2020-07-10.
   The only change was to turn a bunch of http:// URLs
   into https:// URLs.

 - COPYING now exactly matches
   https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt
   as of 2020-07-10
   except that the FSF’s old postal address has been deleted
   and <https://fsf.org/> inserted
   (consistent with COPYINGv3).
   Besides the above, the only change was to whitespace.

 - A typo in a URL in COPYING.EXCEPTION was corrected.

a91e2a71d2 Use GPLv2+ plus exception as license for release.
Return back to GPLv2+, until the text of the exceptions is
finalized, reverting the change from 2007-07-03 and the first
part of the change from 2007-07-20.

Also:
* COPYING: Revert to GPLv2.
* COPYINGv3: New file, since some auxiliary build tools, used for
building autoconf and not installed, are GPLv3.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute COPYINGv3.
* NEWS: Remove mention of GPLv3.
* README: Clarify situation regarding GPLv3.
