I don't see why we could not add an advisory for `cargo` "the crate", and one for cargo the tool (in `rust/cargo/`), they are meant to be used in different...

We are missing license/attribution information in the OSV export (as @Shnatsel pointed out). I don't see any obvious location in the [specs](https://ossf.github.io/osv-schema/) (the credits part does not fit this need)....
