d1ad7bd8e3 Better limitations:trademark-use 
Existing phrase is likely confusing to new readers; trying to better clarify the fact that copyright licenses don't grant you trademarks anyway, but that these licenses are explicit about letting you know trademarks aren't copyrights.

458ef6a7b0 don't use the same color for headings and links 
changed to a slightly-blue grey, which IMO fits well with the current style.

213c5400bc re-add 'featured' field 
was unused for choosealicense.com display after
https://github.com/github/choosealicense.com/pull/386

but choosealicense.com is vendored into licensee which eventually
is used in GitHub; 'featured' determines what is highlighted in
license drop-down eg at https://github.com/new

Mike Linksvayer
7b4160681c Rework descriptions of 7 listed on /licenses 
- primarily functional
- drop self-naming
- minimize requiring significant understanding of other licenses or
  copyright
- should be excruciatingly bland for anyone who already knows the licenses
  well; newcomers shouldn't have to deal with baggage immediately

Probably a few more words should be added to the xGPLv3s about their
stronger patent terms.

Licenses not listed on /licenses could be described in similar style.

57a1b07997 rm symlinks, maybe fix #383 (Windows build) 
Not certain this is right thing to do, but
https://jekyllrb.com/docs/assets/ says "Note that the sass_dir
becomes the load path for Sass imports, nothing more" so setting
it to `assets/vendor` and changing imports accordingly ought and
seems to work without disturbing other files under `assets/vendor`,
even though the docs continue "This folder should only contain
imports."

page covering licensing for this situation

- not linked anywhere yet
- partially addresses #239
- tangentially addresses #242, could be extended to address including
  code from other projects more explicitly
- with some additional work (feedback wanted) could be useful to link
  as another "situation" from the home page

8be0e5f8c2 rm patent-use permission field from GPLv2 and LGPLv2.1 metadata 
There's a strong argument they have implied patent licenses, but
this site doesn't annotate any other implied patent licenses, as
one would expect given the description of the patent-use field "This
license provides an express grant of patent rights from the contributor
to the recipient."

e5a92ccb50 rm 'rename' field; never used to describe any license 
Searched with `git log -Srename`

Arguably *could* be used to describe ofl-1.1 or artistic-2.0, but
renaming is an option for licensors to include in ofl-1.1 and one
of a few ways to comply with artistic-2.0. Doesn't seem straightforward
or common enough to catalog here.

ff122da796 Add 's' when only a single license

4a39b82795 Fixed bug with include when using.size == 1 
If using.size is 1, then the resulting html would be "and PROJECT use the ..." without anything being listed before the "and".
