Consume OSI license list for additional URLs
We have a bunch of these in the fallback list. Let's get them all.
It should be possible. There is this: https://github.com/OpenSourceOrg/licenses
It appears to scrape a bunch of sources (including SPDX) to generate a combined JSON which is hosted at https://api.opensource.org.s3.amazonaws.com/licenses/licenses.json
IANAL: the JSON output is licensed under CC0 so we should be free to consume it

The S3 link is dead, do you know if we should use this link instead? https://api.opensource.org/licenses/
Hmm no idea. Might as well!
