Require license_url, add attribution fields (#182) (v2.0-RC)

v2.0-RC - contains breaking changes: * license_url "Required" Make license_url "Required", add attribution fields and add inventory of common data licenses. * add license_id SPDX License List * If the license_id or license_url fields are blank or omitted, Creative Commons Universal Public Domain Dedication (added text for 'license_url') * Update data-licenses.md update column name and link * Update data-licenses.md clarify identifiers and names * Update data-licenses.md expand the full names of licenses * Added "Beta" Note: I think we should change the markdown style so that there are not extra spaces in the tables. When we change the column widths it makes it harder to do line-by-line comparisons in GitHub. * formatting updates for "beta" * formatting - add line break makes it easier to read Co-authored-by: christrillium <[email protected]>

+### Common Data Licenses
+
+Below is a table of common licenses under which datasets can be made available. A permissive license will likely permit more apps and developers to ingest GBFS data. No recommendation for any particular license is offered here.
+
+Definitions of terms:
+- Requires attribution: Data users must give credit (attribution) to the data publisher and provide a link to the license.
+- Share-alike (viral): Derivative works (remixed, transformed, or built upon the material) must be distributed under the same license as the original.
