Update the license docs

Achilleas Pipinellis requested to merge docs/license-update into master

What does this MR do?

Update the license docs to reflect the current behavior of GitLab.

From the discussion in the chat:

Questions to be answered:

  1. if the licence is removed from the instance, will it behave as CE then? => Yes
  2. If a GitLab license expires, can product still be used as CE, or "you will not be able to push any commits to GitLab and creation of new issues and merge requests will be disabled" => Limited availability, locked features (push, issues creation, etc.)
  3. Do we still give 2 week grace after expiration? https://about.gitlab.com/pricing says, “14 days after the subscription has ended, GitLab will display a notice to all users informing them of the expiration, and pushing code and creation of issues and merge requests will be disabled.”
