[License-review] Please rename "Free Public License-1.0.0" to 0BSD.

[Rob Landley]

Then _remove_ the "Free Public License" page and let SPDX stand on its own.

Your policy was to be compatible with SPDX. Your submission was recieved after
SPDX had already concluded its approval process for this license. By its _own_
policies, OSI made a mistake in approving a "Free Public License".

You are now raising _unrelated_ objections to avoid admitting that mistake.
