Antonin Godard 8c2c3b114e contributor-guide/recipe-style-guide.rst: explain difference between layer and recipe license(s) ...

Explain that the LICENSE set in a recipe does not apply to the recipe
file itself, but to the underlying software. The license of the recipe
file is the license provided in the layer itself. Give OpenEmbedded-Core
as an example for this.

Fixes [YOCTO #14410]
