remove overly-broad statements about licensing from docs

Browse source 
Elastic has recently announced that we are [opening x-pack][] code, which was
previously private. It will be released under a commercial license and
included in some distributions of Logstash, making certain distributions not
fully-FOSS-compliant. For that reason, we want to avoid making overly-broad
statements about "open-source" that could become confusing in the near future.

Elastic continues to invest heavily in the Apache2-licensed open core of
Logstash; we will continue to release and distribute OSS-only artifacts, and
will empower our community to use and extend Logstash.

# Logstash
Logstash is part of the [Elastic Stack](https://www.elastic.co/products) along with Beats, Elasticsearch and Kibana. Logstash is an open source, server-side data processing pipeline that ingests data from a multitude of sources simultaneously, transforms it, and then sends it to your favorite "stash." (Ours is Elasticsearch, naturally.). Logstash has over 200 plugins, and you can write your own very easily as well.
The license is Apache 2.0, meaning you are pretty much free to use it however you want in whatever way.
