Migrate License field to SPDX identifiers (RHEL-25850)

Browse Source 
This commit (a) expands on and corrects some errors in the long
comment describing various licenses used in glibc preceding the
License field; and (b) migrates the License field to SPDX identifiers
based on an analysis of glibc-2.39 sources done using the ScanCode
toolkit.

Resolves: RHEL-25850
