Description

I noticed today that the GitHub license badge uses `/license` whereas most of our other license badges use `/l`. I'd suggest we change GitHub to match the others and add a redirect.

The other one that uses `/license` is AUR; we could update that one too.

Research direction

Search the badge definitions and redirect routing for the GitHub and AUR license endpoints, then compare them with providers already using /l. Done means the providers use the consistent /l URL and the existing /license URLs redirect successfully.
