f1a1981818 Fix template parameter markers in ISC license. 
License template parameters are surrounded by square brackets, not
angle brackets.  Drop extension from source: as it's unnecessary.
Add more details to description:.  Add note: and filename:.  Add
private-use and sort permissions.

10d5b7a27f Add license name to MIT license 
It's very helpful/timesaving to people considering making use of a project for the license text to have the title, so they don't have to do a search to confirm what the license is. Therefore, the portion of the MIT license that gets copied to clipboard should have the license title.

3434956294 licenses: pre-format bsd license texts 
The license text is shown as preformatted text; therefore we
need to wrap it to a sane length (like 80 characters) to
keep it readable.

In addition, we must do any formatting or indentation in the
source file. Both BSD licenses contain a list of conditions
that should be indented like a list, with blank lines in
between.

We could also potentially number the clauses; FreeBSD does
in its copy, but the OSI versions do not.

9ec596780f licenses: make all permalinks relative 
Pointing to `/artistic` is a broken link, since the content
is in `licenses/`. Follow the lead of other licenses, which
use a relative link that works.

750180997a Remove the /licenses directory 
Now that license metadata has been moved to YAML front matter, the
/license/*.html file are essentially just the raw text of the license.

Not sure what the original purpose was for this folder, but if duplicative,
lets remove to avoid cruft.
