appdata: Fix project license

Philip Withnall requested to merge appdata-license into master

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.
