Propose CFEP-21 license packages for static/header libraries #47

@hmaarrfk, mentioned this in a discussion today, and every so often I wonder about whether licenses for header-only libraries are being satisfied. I wrote something up to see if we can make this official policy.

Seems good to me. Note that we cannot patch run exports so we won't be able to go back and fix old packages that should have run exports. This is not a big deal but useful to set expectations on how compliant we can be.

We can however start a migration. That can likely help this issue.
