project: Add SPDX_LICENSE argument

Browse Source 
Add an argument to the `project` command to allow specifying a license
for a project as a whole. This is in addition to specifying licenses on
individual targets, and will be used to set the license(s) on exported
packages.

Also, move listing of `COMPAT_VERSION` variables to follow
lexicographical order.
