Description

A significant amount of Rust crate.io packages are licensed under MIT or Apache-2.0. We should modify scancode such that if Apache-2.0 and MIT was detected as licenses for a crate.io package, this license should be normalized to the expression `mit OR apache-2.0` instead of `mit AND apache-2.0`
