The SPDX standard includes a lengthy list of known licenses. In many cases, projects just use those licenses, and no further license specification is necessary.

cargo-spdx needs to support the following:
[ ] Detecting when non-standard licenses are in use.
[ ] Producing the proper outputs in the SPDX document to represent those licenses.
