Nested groups not supported for group license assignment

[klishb]

Per this page it states:

"You can assign licenses to only one group, but you can nest groups within that one group."

This contradicts what this page says:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/enterprise-users/licensing-group-advanced#limitations-and-known-issues

"Group-based licensing currently does not support groups that contain other groups (nested groups). If you apply a license to a nested group, only the immediate first-level user members of the group have the licenses applied."
