[poky] [PATCH 0/1] Poky License Reporting

[Beth Flanagan]

Initial commit of license reporting:

This is an intial commit for the license reporting system. A few notes:
The LICENSE fields needs to be standardized throughout poky.

I've seen a few places where Apache-v2.0 is written differently and
I'm sure this will bug things out. This does not put the license data
on the rootfs. I'm still working on that capability. Also, I provide both
the actual license text and a link to the best guess of the
generic_license. That guessing is not very robust and I'm loath to get
into a bunch of pattern matching rather than standardize LICENSE.

This adds one new param to poky.conf and one new to license.bbclass:

LICENSE_DIR: the base directory we copy all the license results to (set
in license.bbclass)
COMMON_LICENSE_DIR: this is the directory that holds all the common
generic license files. currently meta/files/common-licenses (set in
poky.conf)

TODO:
- We should verify the common-licenses. I stripped these from my Ubuntu
  10.10 system.
- Enable ENABLE_ROOTFS_LICENSES. This is commented out in poky.conf. The
  code isn't written for it, but we should allow that capability, although
  the resulting image created would be a lot larger.
- More common-licenses. I don't include bzip, zlib, ICS.... I should,
  but that means tracking down a lot of licenses.
- General cleanup of licensing and standardization of names. We should
  standardize on a naming convention. What's in licenses.conf should
  match up with what is in the recipes which should match with what is
  in common-licenses. Outside the scope of this though. See:
