[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] package/glibc: fix license information

[Fiona Klute via buildroot]

From: "Fiona Klute (Othermo GmbH)" <fiona.klute@gmx.de>

The COPYINGv3 license file was added with upstream commit
e067e53080386e93dcf8b07e25fb6656f2c8941e, it applies to scripts used
during build.

LGPL-3.0+ applies to sysdeps/htl/raise.c, which is used for the Hurd
platform. Buildroot builds only Linux, so the file should not be
compiled, but it is part of the downloaded (and possibly shared, if
"make legal-info" is used) archive. The same applies to the manual.

Checked against the copyright file of the Debian "libc6" package (as
of 2.42-17 and 2.43-2), note that Debian excludes the manual.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] package/localedef: copy license information from package/glibc

[Fiona Klute via buildroot]

From: "Fiona Klute (Othermo GmbH)" <fiona.klute@gmx.de>

Localedef is built from the glibc source code, so license information
is the same.
