Special notes for your reviewer:

@Issif
It is recommended to add a specific message in the release note of 2.29. Here's a draft:

Falcosidekick is now dual-licensed under both the MIT and Apache 2.0 licenses. This change provides flexibility for end-users while ensuring compliance with [The Falco Project governance](https://github.com/falcosecurity/evolution/blob/main/GOVERNANCE.md#license). Existing contributions remain under the MIT license, with the Apache 2.0 license added as an additional option.

The Apache 2.0 license is now an option, not a replacement for the MIT license. This does not override the terms of the MIT license. Users may choose which license to follow.

Adding SPDX license identifiers to all source file headers is recommended and valuable.

On the other hand, as per our governance, we may add copyright notices to file headers or a designed file. For streamlining, we opted only to add copyright notices at https://github.com/falcosecurity/falcosidekick/blob/master/LICENSE.
