SPDX License List is a list of (common) open source
licenses that can be referred to by a “short identifier”.
It has several advantages compared to the common "license header texts"
usually found in source files.
Some of the advantages:
* It is precise; there is no ambiguity due to variations in license header
text
* It is language neutral
* It is easy to machine process
* It is concise
* It is simple and can be used without much cost in interpreted
environments like java Script, etc.
* An SPDX license identifier is immutable.
* It provides simple guidance for developers who want to make sure the
license for their code is respected

This is the new way of publishing repository metadata, rather than as
additional-metadata in the summary file. The use of an ostree-metadata
ref means that the metadata from multiple upstream collections is not
conflated when doing P2P mirroring of many repositories.
The new ref is only generated if the repository has a collection ID set.
The old summary file continues to be generated for backwards
compatibility (and because it continues to be the canonical ref →
checksum map for the repository).
The new code is only used if configured with --enable-experimental-api.
Includes unit tests.
