Provide all licenses used in the project in a LICENSES folder and
add SPDX license and copyright information for all files in
accordance with the Reuse Software[0] specification.
The copyright information is based on the file's git history,
using a fairly generous definition of "non-trivial".
As of the spec recommendation, the information is generally added
as comments in the files themselves, except for
- NEWS, README and similar top-level standard files, so that
a SPDX code isn't the first thing people encounter
- files that don't support comments (json) or where they'd
be a bit awkward (.desktop, .service)
- anything under po/, to not interfere with translation teams
Those are covered by a .reuse/dep5 files, except for image assets,
where separate .license files are used (It would be possible to
add comments to SVG files, but I don't trust image editors to
preserve them).

While we don't endorse or support 3rd party theming, the extension
exists and is actively used. However right now the most convenient
way of setting it up is by installing Tweak Tool; give users an
alternative by providing a simple settings dialog ourselves.
