Description

Guide to bundle LICENSE files with the wheels: https://wheel.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user_guide.html#including-license-files-in-the-generated-wheel-file

We also need to ensure, that all thirdparty dependencies' license are attached to it, especially because we're statically linking multiple 3rdparty dependencies, and for example uriparser is missing from the LICENSE file.
