Currently the License plugin looks for files inside the jar file, that 
eventually contain licensing information.

OSGi defined another standard way to declare license requirements through a 
manifest header.

The syntax for this header is as follows:

Bundle-License ::= '<<EXTERNAL>>' | 
( license ( ',' license ) * )
license        ::= name ( ';' license-attr ) *
license-attr   ::= description | link
description    ::= 'description' '=' string
link           ::= 'link' '=' <url>
