selinux.c: Use same license as upstream file (LGPLv2.1+)
The upstream file is licensed under the LGPLv2.1+ and it uses an SPDX license identifier rather than an LGPL license notice[1]. And according to the GNU project, the LGPLv2.1+ is compatible with both the GPLv2 (with the result being GPLv2) and the GPLv3 (with the result being GPLv3), though the reverse (GPL -> LGPL) does not apply[2] [3]. This means that if we make changes that are only available under the GPLv2, systemd would be unable to copy them back and release the result under the LGPLv2.1 without being in violation of the GPLv2. So replace the GPL license notice with the SPDX license identifier of the upstream file ("LGPL-2.1-or-later"), to make it easier to share changes between both projects. See also the following systemd commits[4] [5] [6] [7]: * 53e1b68390 ("Add SPDX license identifiers to source files under the LGPL", 2017-11-18) * db9ecf0501 ("license: LGPL-2.1+ -> LGPL-2.1-or-later", 2020-11-09) [1] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/254d1313ae5a69c08c9b93032aaaf3d6083cfc07/src/shared/selinux-util.c [2] https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.en.html#LGPLv2.1 [3] https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-compatibility.html [4] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/53e1b683907c2f12330f00feb9630150196f064d [5] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/7386 [6] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/db9ecf050165fd1033c6f81485917e229c4be537 [7] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/17548
