Extend licensing scheme, install & package licenses
Licensing was incorrect, incomplete, and at best, ambiguous. Some
recipes were picking one license when there were many, others were
listing all the licenses and you had to pick one.
On the other hand, many projects are licensed under multiple BSD-like
licenses, and you must adhere to the terms of all of them, and there
was no way to know how from the binary packages.
Now we have an extended syntax for declaring the licensing properties
of a recipe. The licenses array can now also contain dictionaries with
License enums as keys and relative paths to files in the source tree
as values. All files specified in this way will be copied into
`share/licenses/$recipe_name`.
Common license texts which are copied verbatim by projects without
adding any specific author/copyright information have been copied into
`data/licenses/` and will be copied into `share/licenses/$recipe_name`
when a license is specified without a corresponding source tree file.
`share/licenses/$recipe_name/README-LICENSE-INFO.txt` contains
a disclaimer that this is not legal advice, and uses (AND) and (OR)
operators to declare the combinations of licenses you can pick when
adhering to the license requirements of a project.
`share/licenses/$recipe_name` is, of course, now also copied into the
devel binary packages.
I have made a best-effort to check and update the licenses in each
recipe, but I have probably missed things. Reviews and updates are
welcome. I also did not bother updating the toolchain recipe licenses
too carefully since we do not ship them with our binary packages;
except mingw-runtime.recipe (which does have an updated license).
