This filter was imported from mplayer's libmpcodecs/vf_cropdetect.c, and
marked as GPL when originally copied over.

On the mplayer side, it was authored originally by arpi and subsequently touched by
the following contributors. See https://github.com/pigoz/mplayer-svn/commits/master/libmpcodecs/vf_cropdetect.c

  arpi
  albeu
  diego
  reimar
  michael
  reynaldo
  lucabe
  cehoyos

Of these contributors, all except the last two granted their permission to relicense
mplayer changes to LGPL. See https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/List-of-MPlayer-LGPL-relicensing-agreements

The change by lucabe was to remove an include header, and the change by cehoyos was to
change whitespace. Both are trivial and can be ignored for copyright purposes. See
https://github.com/pigoz/mplayer-svn/commit/6da0237a4#diff-2d400db883ad8bca0e5d6a78f12613fd
and https://github.com/pigoz/mplayer-svn/commit/04d069fcb#diff-2d400db883ad8bca0e5d6a78f12613fd

The import into ffmpeg was done by Stefano Sabatini. It was then touched by the following
contributors, who specifically made changes to the filter. This does not include
commits which changed this file but were part of larger refactorings that changed
lavfi APIs and other LGPL filters as well. See
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commits/master/libavfilter/vf_cropdetect.c

  Stefano Sabatini
  Michael Niedermayer
  Anton Khirnov
  Clément Bœsch
  Paul B Mahol
  Carl Eugen Hoyos
  Vittorio Giovara
  Ganesh Ajjanagadde

The people above are CC'd on this patch for their permission to relicense vf_cropdetect as LGPL.

Sure, OK for me.

You need to update LICENSE.md btw.
