commit a612bd11b2ae74d6a35b8d80805277a1df96d66b

appdata: Fix project license
The `<project_license>` element is intended to state the license of the
project as a whole. The SPDX `and` term means that the overall license
is the more restrictive union of both given licenses. That means that
the SPDX expression `GPL-3.0+ and CC-BY-SA-3.0` is not FOSS.
This was causing Hitori to be shown as proprietary software in
gnome-software.
See https://github.com/ximion/appstream/issues/312
Fix that by only giving the license of the code as the
`<project_license>`, ignoring the license of the help manual.
