docs(about): state the GeoLite2 licence in full

The credits page named CC BY-SA 4.0 alone. MaxMind stopped distributing
GeoLite2 under that licence by itself: the databases ship under the
GeoLite End User License Agreement, which incorporates CC BY-SA 4.0 by
reference and controls wherever the two disagree. Name both, in that
order, and link the EULA. The attribution string was already there and
is unchanged; the e2e page check now asserts both licences rather than
the one that no longer stands alone.

Reconcile the self-hosting guide with the same wording, point it at the
current EULA URL, and say why the `/about` page must stay reachable — it
is where an operator's own attribution lives.

Correct the project licence line while on the page: it still claimed
AGPL-3.0, which the page's own footer contradicts. The trunk has been
PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0 since v1.15.19.
