Handle "AND" operator in licenses #15

Closed IsaacGerma closed 5 months ago

IsaacGerma commented 5 months ago

The "AND" operator is used for packages which are required to comply with multiple different licenses.

https://spdx.github.io/spdx-spec/v2.3/SPDX-license-expressions/#d43-conjunctive-and-operator

This change should be able to correctly identify free packages that list licenses with the "AND" operator.

I'll accept this for now, ideally this should handle the 'OR' operator as well, but this is better than what we have now anyway.

Just FYI I'm working on an SPDX expression parser now.

Actually, at this point I might end up rewriting this entire script, but that will come later.
