Add new license llama-3-license-2024 for the Meta Llama 3 Community License Agreement (April 18, 2024 version), following the pattern of the existing llama-2, llama-3.1, llama-3.2 and llama-3.3 license entries. The license text is the agreement as published at https://github.com/meta-llama/llama3/blob/main/LICENSE without the appended Acceptable Use Policy, consistent with the sibling entries. Reference: aboutcode-org#5269 Signed-off-by: Manoj Gowda <manojgowdabs18@gmail.com>
The CI license_validate_ignorables job caught that the declared ignorable_urls did not match the detected ones: the Meta brand guidelines URL keeps its trailing slash. Regenerated the ignorables with SCANCODE_REGEN_TEST_FIXTURES=yes running tests/licensedcode/test_detection_validate.py, which also normalized the file ending to the canonical dump format. Both validation tests for this license now pass locally. Signed-off-by: Manoj Gowda <manojgowdabs18@gmail.com>
