rpmlint only knows what licenses we tell it, and the Fedora rpmlint
policy has not been updated yet because we want the
fedora-license-data package to produce the necessary TOML file that
rpmlint will source rather than me maintaining another copy of this.

rpmlint will handle both Fedora style and SPDX license tags once we
have that data file in place.
