Stop incorrectly calling CC0 a license
...
CC0 is a public domain dedication, not a license [1]. In the world of
FOSS, the term “license” is primarily used to refer to a “copyright
license [2]”. You can’t offer a copyright license for something that
isn’t copyrighted, and the goal of CC0 is to stop things from being
copyrighted.
Additionally, saying that a work is available under “a CC0 v1.0 license”
can potentially change the (perceived) legal effect of CC0. While CC0
tries to make works no longer copyrighted, some jurisdictions don’t
allow copyright owners to do so [3]. As a result, CC0 contains (in
section 3) a fallback license. If a work remains copyrighted after CC0’s
attempt to waive copyright, then the fallback license takes effect. I’m
aware of at least one situation where someone wrote “licensed under CC0”
and meant “available under the fallback license” rather than “dedicated
to the public domain” [4].
The filename “COPYING.txt” was used because that’s the filename that
Creative Commons recommends when using CC0 on software [5].

Correct file extension used for CC0
...
f3eeda4
(Adding license, 2022-10-14) added a copy of the plain text
version of CC0 [1]. That commit mistakenly used the .md file extension
for the plain text file that it created.
GitHub automatically assumes that .md files contain Markdown [2]. As a
result, the plain text version of CC0 would get rendered as Markdown
which made it significantly harder to read. The lists inside sections 1
and 4 would be rendered as amorphous paragraphs.
This commit changes the file extension to .txt to prevent GitHub from
making CC0 harder to read.
