README: declare base_reverse_dns_map.csv under CC BY-SA 4.0

The map is now a curated derivative of the bundled IPinfo Lite MMDB
(as_domain / as_name fields, walked for unmapped operators and
classified via the workflow in AGENTS.md). IPinfo Lite is licensed
under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0, which propagates
to derivative works, so the CSV is distributed under CC BY-SA 4.0
with attribution to IPinfo for the underlying network identification
data.

Also updates the file-size estimate in the README from "over 1,400"
to "over 5,000" to reflect the current state.
