810eeb5618 rename/order license properties better reflect how licenses work 
and are structured

grant (permissions)
conditioned on (conditions)
with limitations

Permissions coming first combats mistaken but apparently widespread
impression that licenses impose conditions, even such that without
a license, there would be no conditions/work would be in the public
domain.

Requirements->Conditions emphasizes that they are pertinent if one
wants to take advantage of permissions.

Forbiddens->Limitations is more accurate: in most cases licenses
don't give permission to hold licensors liable, in some cases to
use licensors' trademarks or patents, but a licensee does not lose
the permissions granted by the license if the licensee holds licensor
liable, etc. Also emphasizes that there are limitatations on the
license grant, not that the license imposes prohibitions.

The most concise place to see both the rename and reorder is in
_includes/license-overview.html

I did not reorder the appearance of the groups of properties in
license source files (.txt files in _licenses) as those orderings
are not used to render anything on the webiste. Might do so later.

2d4c4a63bd non-software licenses page 
building on https://github.com/github/choosealicense.com/pull/307

non-software rather than non-code because software is eating the
world, the main topic is open source software, and I find
software/non-software slighly less trying than code/non-code if
only because it isn't a
[thing](http://www.adamhyde.net/perhaps-stop-using-non-code-whatayarekin/).

tweak text of page, also addressing #261 and #313

cc-by-sa-4.0: Fix CC BY link and add compatible license mention

39154843df cc-by-sa-4.0: Weaken "same license" to mention compatibility 
The human-readable summary uses "same license" [1], but also links to
a page listing other compatible licenses [2], and the license text
includes a compatible-license alternative [3,4].  This commit links to
that same set of compatible licenses using Mike's wording [5].
