github: Add GH Action to check SPDX license headers in new files.

- Created a workflow to automatically check for SPDX license headers in
  new files when a PR is opened or changes are pushed to `master` or version-stable branches.
- Added `tools/spdx-check.sh` script that scans new files with specific
  extensions and certain filenames for the `SPDX-License-Identifier`
  header.
- The script excludes files in `vendor/` directories from the check.
- The workflow will fail if any of the new files are missing the required SPDX license header.
