[YOCTO #2230]
1.1+ had some incorrect license text. This corrects that text and
adds licenses that didn't exist in 1.1+.

New users sometimes delete files in tmp/deploy/images assuming they will
be re-created just by re-running the build, and then are confused when
this doesn't work. To discourage people from doing this, create a file
called README_-_DO_NOT_DELETE_FILES_IN_THIS_DIRECTORY.txt in
tmp/deploy/images containing an explanation of what needs to be done to
re-create files there.
Fixes [YOCTO #1315] and [YOCTO #1346].

Add a new function that is responsible for fixing directory and file
permissions, owners and groups during the packaging process. This will fix
various issues where two packages may create the same directory and end up
with different permissions, owner and/or group.
The issue being resolved is that if two packages conflict in their ownership
of a directory, the first installed into the rootfs sets the permissions.
This leads to a least potentially non-deterministic filesystems, at worst
security defects.
The user can specify their own settings via the configuration files
specified in FILESYSTEM_PERMS_TABLES. If this is not defined, it will
fall back to loading files/fs-perms.txt from BBPATH. The format of this
file is documented within the file.
By default all of the system directories, specified in bitbake.conf, will
be fixed to be 0755, root, root.
The fs-perms.txt contains a few default entries to correct documentation,
locale, headers and debug sources. It was discovered these are often
incorrect due to being directly copied from the build user environment.
The entries needed to match the base-files package have also been added.
Also tweak a couple of warnings to provide more diagnostic information.

I've added more licenses from SPDX and corrected the gcc license
so that it is a. parsable and b. accurate to the SPDX standard.
I've also done some cleanup of license text and gdb's LICENSE
field.

I'm adding full common licenses to the common license directory.
These licenses are taken from the SPDX project or the OSI license
repository. They conform to the SPDX naming convention and will be
used by the new license.bbclass license parser in order to maintain
some sort of internal standard for license naming.
Going forward, we should have a bigger conversation about the LICENSE
field and standardizing that to conform to this naming standard.

This is an intial commit for the license reporting system. A few notes:
The LICENSE fields needs to be standardized throughout poky. As it
stands, we throw a warning if the license file is not found (either
because it does not exist or because LICENSE_FILE_CHKSUM is munged)
in the generic license directory. This should eventually become an
error.
I've seen a few places where Apache-v2.0 is written differently and
I'm sure this will throw the above warning. This does not put the
license data on the rootfs. 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.
- We should allow the capability of licenses on the rootfs, 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:
