license.bbclass: Introduce AVAILABLE_LICENSES that lists all licenses
Previously, there was SRC_DISTRIBUTE_LICENSES, an undocumented variable that contained a static list of licenses. It was used by expand_wildcard_licenses() to expand any wildcards used in, e.g., INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE. However, since this static list of licenses has not been kept up-to-date, many licenses were missing, with the result that if one tried to use any of those licenses with a wildcard, no licenses would be found, effectively ignoring that they should be marked as incompatible. This introduces a new (documented) variable, AVAILABLE_LICENSES, that is automatically updated to contain all licenses found in any directories specified by ${COMMON_LICENSE_DIR} and ${LICENSE_PATH}, and uses it instead of SRC_DISTRIBUTE_LICENSES when expanding wildcards.
