SPDX: document dual license notation

Browse Source 
In [1] we discussed how we should deal with dual (or, more generally,
multiple) licensed files.  Add this to  Licenses/README  so it's
properly documented.

@ -37,6 +37,18 @@ replaced by a single line:
SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
Ideally, the license terms of all files in the source tree should be
defined by such License Identifiers; in no case a file can contain
more than one such License Identifier list.
If a "SPDX-License-Identifier:" line references more than one Unique
License Identifier, then this means that the respective file can be
used under the terms of either of these licenses, i. e. with
SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ BSD-3-Clause
you can chose between GPL-2.0+ and BSD-3-Clause licensing.
We use the SPDX Unique License Identifiers here; these are available
at [2].
