Hotfix changed SIL OFL License to Apache

See original GitHub issue

1. I ran fontbakery-check-ttf.py for this file.

Here is the Font Info screen shot 2016-07-31 at 15 43 59

INFO     HOTFIXED: License file LICENSE.txt exists but NameID 13 (LICENSE DESCRIPTION) value is not specified for that. Value was: "This Font Software is licensed under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1. This license is available with a FAQ at: http://scripts.sil.org/OFL"  

2. Fixed ttf here
