Adds the Mozilla Public License 2.0 to the license choices offered by the template.

Adds "Mozilla Public License Version 2.0" as a license choice, listed after Apache 2.0 and before GPLv3 to keep the permissive-to-copyleft ordering of the existing options.

The license text is the canonical Mozilla text, verbatim except for one stripped trailing space (the upstream text has one on the line defining "Larger Work"), which the generated project's trailing-whitespace hook would otherwise flag.

Unlike the other options, no copyright holder is interpolated: MPL 2.0 has no copyright placeholder, and attribution belongs in the per-file Exhibit A notice rather than in the license text.

cookiecutter-scverse gained a 'Mozilla Public License Version 2.0' choice in scverse/cookiecutter-scverse#541, so the template answer can now name it instead of MIT.
Also strips one trailing space so LICENSE is byte-identical to the template's rendered text and to the trailing-whitespace hook's expectations.
