Here's a first shot. The attached patch (against the latest repository
snapshot) adds a 'LICENSE' parameter to MakeMaker. It also tries to make
the metafile output a little more Module::Build-ish. I didn't add a
parameter for 'DISTRIBUTION_TYPE', since this is currently hardcoded
also in M::B.

As this is my first patch to MM, please let me know if I missed anything.
