    include/search: migrate to SPDX identifier
    
    Most tools used for compliance and SBOM generation use SPDX identifiers
    This change brings us a step closer to an easy SBOM generation.
    
    define NuttX local NuttX-PublicDomain identifier
    
     “Public Domain” is a concept distinct from copyright licensing;
    it generally means that the work no longer has any copyright protection
    or ownership, and therefore requires no license permission in order to
    use, copy, modify, distribute, perform, display, etc.
    In the United States – and many jurisdictions – copyright protections
    attach automatically to creative works upon creation if they satisfy
    certain minimum criteria.
    “Public Domain” would thus represent a significant change to the legal
    status of the work.
    The rules around “Public Domain” often vary or are unspecified
    jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Adding to the confusion, some
    jurisdictions may not even recognize the concept of “Public Domain”
    (or similar). As such, a license may nevertheless be required or implied
    in these cases. Even in the U.S., there is no clear,
    officially-sanctioned procedure for affirmatively placing
    copyright-eligible works into the “Public Domain” aside from natural
    statutory expiration of copyright. The bottom-line is, there are few if
    any objective, brightline rules for proactively placing
    copyright-eligible works into the Public Domain that we can broadly
    rely on.
