chore(plugins): remove licensing contract

[yordis]

• Keep the shared plugin contract aligned with a FOSS-only runtime so host integrations do not need to carry license placeholders.
• Avoid making component authors provide licensing metadata for features that should be controlled through normal configuration and service registration.

Walkthrough

All licensing infrastructure is removed from the plugin framework: ILicenseService, License, LicenseConstants, LicenseMonitor, LicenseException, and LicenseEntitlementException are deleted. IPlugableComponent, PluginOptions, Plugin, SubsystemsPlugin, AuthenticationProviderBase, and AuthorizationProviderBase drop all license-related constructor parameters and properties. Associated NuGet dependencies and tests are also removed.

Poem

🐇 Hop hop, the licenses are gone,
No public keys to carry on!
The plugin runs with lighter feet,
No JWT to make complete.
Just diagnostics, clean and neat! ✨
