[#2489] Add CITATION.cff for Apache Shiro

[iampratap7997-dot]

Following this checklist to help us incorporate your contribution quickly and easily:

• Make sure there is a GitHub issue filed
  for the change (usually before you start working on it). Trivial changes like typos do not
  require a GitHub issue. Your pull request should address just this issue, without pulling in other changes.
• Format the pull request title like [#XXX] - Fixes bug in SessionManager,
  where you replace #XXX with the appropriate GitHub issue. Best practice
  is to use the GitHub issue title in the pull request title and in the first line of the commit message.
• Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand what the pull request does, how, and why.
• add fixes #XXX if merging the PR should close a related issue.
• Run mvn verify to make sure basic checks pass. A more thorough check will be performed on your pull request automatically.
• Committers: Make sure a milestone is set on the PR
• Committers: Use "Squash and Merge" to combine all commits into one when merging a PR when appropriate.

Trivial changes like typos do not require a GitHub issue (javadoc, comments...).
In this case, just format the pull request title like [DOC] - Add javadoc in SessionManager.

If this is your first contribution, you have to read the Contribution Guidelines

If your pull request is about ~20 lines of code you don't need to sign an Individual Contributor License Agreement

Hi,
This is my first contribution to Apache Shiro.
CI appears to be awaiting for maintainer approval to run.
Thank you!

The license check has failed.

Most files do need to have the standard ASF license header.

Otherwise you need to add an exclude in the repo root POM.xml file in the "apache-rat-plugin"

Hi @jbampton, thank you for reviewing!

Since I do not have permission to edit the pom.xml to exclude CITATION.cff from the RAT license check, I leave it to the maintainers to handle the exclusion.

Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for the clarification. Will update the pom.xml file asap. Thanks.

You have added the license header now that should be enough.

You do not need to update the pom.xml since you added the license header.

You do either one, not both.
