Problem statement

We currently have an ad-hoc 'UNDETECTED' license for case where we don't detect
the license. This leads to some special casing (see the linked PR for example)
which increases our code complexity.

High-level Goals

Instead of UNDETECTED, use the standard SPDX identifiers.

Proposal description

Since we use SPDX identifiers, we should use the standard they have
for that:

Alternatives

N/A

Additional context

#2705 (comment)

Acceptance Criteria

  • Consumers and producers of the license data use the correct SPDX
    identifiers and avoid special-casing
  • 'UNDETECTED' is replace by 'no-license' in the DB
