Is the Apache copyright header necessary in project.pbxproj files?

XCode removes it every time it opens the project file.

Makes sense. Let's go ahead and remove the notice from the project files
then. They are bound to be removed eventually since Xcode takes it out
anyways.

That's a good question. I only added it because Apache RAT was
complaining (and on check-in I discard the change to remove the Apache
header). I think the threshold is whether it is a "creative" work,
which IMO I don't think it is (and if all of us can agree, I believe).

There was an old thread regarding this, with precedence in other projects.
