You can find these details in the docs here:
http://snapcraft.io/docs/build-snaps/metadata#fixed-assets
This does not mention the magic name(s) needed for license (nee licence,
copyright, legal, copying etc.) files to be discovered and made available from
the snap metadata by installers, the snap store or other consumers. Which is
what we are really asking.
Just put the license in the setup/ directory and name it license.txt.
What does this actually trigger? Is it detected by the store? Or is it
just shipped with the snap and then being available as part of $SNAP?
I don't know if it is used in the store, someone else with more knowledge will
have to comment.
Here's the history
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/snappy-devel/2016-March/001596.html
Here is where it should be documented:
http://snapcraft.io/docs/build-snaps/metadata under fixed assets.
That said, there are multiple parties wanting it to be by declaration
instead of a fixed location (and I am in that camp, while going by
path-convention is a good idea for the snap itself, it brought in
multiple problems to the builders). Going by declaration would make it
easy to just provide whatever asset from whatever sources are used
(which is what the current deprecated entry points do).
