FOSSA is a tool for scanning a repository to ensure that its dependencies are properly licensed. License scanning is a requirement from Legal and needs to be run in all of the repositories that we use.

This is an automatic PR which adds a new GitHub Actions workflow (in .github/workflows/fossa-license-scan.yml) that will run FOSSA on every push to the main/master branch using fossa-cli.

This PR is being batch added to all of our existing repos which should be running FOSSA scans and the PR will be approved automatically. This will run parallelly in GitHub Actions whenever there is a push to the main/master branch and will not block deployments. If the FOSSA action detects any licensing issues it will open an issue in GitHub to team-cloud retrospectively.

For more information on the fossa-license-scan.yml workflow, see: https://stackoverflow.com/c/intercom/questions/1270
