It should be centred between the uprights of the Ls, and that makes it
so. Sadly, it's not possible to do the same for the lower-case.
Also add a relevant link to NOTES.

Remove ZVBI-derived comment and code tables from NOTES
...
For the most part they're not useful, and they're arguably under the GNU
GPL. I've replaced them with an original prose description of some of
the interesting facts. For everything else, you can go to ZVBI itself.

Proper licence etc for ZVBI bits in NOTES
...
ZVBI is under LGPL v2, but the NOTES file isn't a library so I need to
licence the excerpt under GPL v2 instead. But actually I think I want
to remove that text, so this is just to legitimise the distribution of
the Git history.
