util-linux: Update License Information (remove GPLv3 Licnese)
The upstream authors have updated the licenses of a couple subcomponents, these were GPLv3, but updated to be either GPLv2 or LGPLv2.1 accordingly. These changes make the util-linux package become completely non-GPLv3. Cleaned up some white space issue also [YOCTO #4014] Signed-off-by: Saul Wold <sgw@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

+Notes from Pdraig (via email) :
+
+Actually LGPLv2+ is most appropriate for that.
+The intent is that it's licensed under the LGPL anyway:
+
+$ gnulib/gnulib-tool --local-dir gl --extract-license mbsalign
+LGPL
+
+When extracting this to util-linux I should have adjusted
+the boilerplate default license in the file (which gnulib-tool
+can do on import).
