[Imports] Data license checking

[Andrew Turner]

You should ask the local government to add explicit licenses to their open
data. They can indicate specific open licenses following these directions
(since they are using ArcGIS Hub) [1]

As also noted, if they submit their data to Esri Living Atlas they can also
explicitly indicate ODbL and OSM usage for their data and it would then be
available in RapiD and can be more easily added to OSM via the editor.
