Policy for adding new files to OpenWrt

Hi team,

Based on PR#3427 on GitHub[0] I'd suggest we add a policy that every
added file needs a SPDX header. This likely simplifies merging patches
into mainline Kernel and probably makes some lawyers happy.

There are fancy tools to do so, like the `reuse` project[1].

Best,
Paul
