Match license by URL #5137

Description

Current Behavior

If I understand correctly the code at

license is matched by SPDX ID or by name.

Proposed Behavior

License names can be misspelled, matching by license URL seems more robust.
E.g. SPDX maven plugin matches licenses by URL

To preserve backwards compatibility the matching by URL should be added as last attempt
