brook 8e3cceea64 Add the biopython license to DEFAULT_ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES.
The biopython license is _very_ similar, but not identical, to many
other open source licenses used throughout pkgsrc.  The gratuitous
differences are being addressed by the project through an effort to
relicense all files to the 3-clause BSD license.  In the meantime,
Debian has accepted that the current biopython license meets the DFSG
and includes the package in their main distribution.  Consequently,
rename the license file and add it to DEFAULT_ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES.
