Lavapipe license

Hi everyone,

I'd like to bundle Lavapipe's binary that I've built (also contains LLVM
thanks to static linking) with a commercial application and I'm confused
regarding which licenses I should include into the product. Reading in
https://docs.mesa3d.org/license.html, "Different copyrights and licenses
apply to different components" and "In general, consult the source files
for license terms." makes me think that I should search into every
component that Lavapipe uses (how can I figure these out precisely?), is
that correct? For example, do I need the licenses for LLVM, Main Mesa code,
Gallium, llvmpipe and more? Additionally, looking inside Lavapipe's source
files under src/gallium/frontends/lavapipe, I see various license texts
from RedHat, Intel, AMD, Valve, VMware etc.

I feel a bit overwhelmed as to what's the proper thing to do, so if anyone
could help me learn how to figure situations like this out, I would be
really grateful. Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
George
