When copying license files to the image rootfs, i.e to /usr/share/common-licenses, a canonical name of a license should be used, otherwise duplicated files end up in common-licenses directory. For example, GPL-2.0 license according to conf/license.conf can be referenced in recipes as GPL-2, GPLv2, and GPLv2.0. If a license name is used directly, we end up with three files in the rootfs with the same content. If a canonical name used instead, then each license gets copied only once.
