Why specify both GPLv2 and GPLv2+ for udev?

Also, this string really doesn't look like what we usually do, it
should rather be:

	LGPLv2.1+, GPLv2+ (udev), Public Domain (few source files, see README)

and since the README is important to licensing apparently, it should be mentioned in:

> +SYSTEMD_LICENSE_FILES = LICENSE.GPL2 LICENSE.LGPL2.1

Thanks,

Thomas
