Set it to 0 can make it archive all the used sources during the build, nothing

This equals to:

COPYLEFT_LICENSE_EXCLUDE = ""
But there are a lot of settings in copyleft_filter.bbclass, so it may not work
when its default settings are changed, add the var ENABLE_COPYLEFT_FILTER will
make it more reliable.
Why would copyleft_filter.bbclass not work when the settings are
changed? They're intended to be configurable.
I've been using `COPYLEFT_LICENSE_INCLUDE = "*"` in several projects
for years now. I'm not sure that we need another overlapping variable
which could confuse users further.
As you know, there other settings in copyleft_filter.bbclass may affect
the result, such as:
COPYLEFT_RECIPE_TYPES
COPYLEFT_PN_INCLUDE
COPYLEFT_PN_EXCLUDE
These settings maybe changed, and it's not easy to detect the changes,
the ENABLE_COPYLEFT_FILTER can make it more reliable.
