(Apache-2.0 OR MIT) explanation page

[Samuel Marks]

Hi Rust folk,

I recently open-sourced over 100 of my & my orgs repositories under the (Apache-2.0) OR MIT multi-license.

Starting to add shields also:

But people tend to link them to:
https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0

Maybe rust-forge is the right place to have an explanation of the multi-license? - Then we can also petition GitHub to include SPDY expression parsing into their license inference system.

Some ideas on what to include on the page:

There's also a broken link from https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/api-guidelines/necessities.html#crate-and-its-dependencies-have-a-permissive-license-c-permissive to https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/faq.html#why-a-dual-mit-asl2-license
