[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/3] dtc: update legal info

[Rahul Bedarkar]

library libdtc is dual licensed under BSD-2c or GPLv2+ and dtc programs
are licensed under GPLv2+.

This patch annotates licenses with components and uses correct format to
specify dual licensing that is separating licenses with 'or' keyword
instead of '/'.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 3/3] usbredir: improve license description

[Rahul Bedarkar]

For consistency use 'libraries' and 'program' as component names and
adjust license string for readability when we conditionally specify
license for server program.
