Provide OSI approval information on license details / summaries #827

Description

@JonDouglas

Would it be helpful to add some type of metadata or OSI stamp to the licenses? The list of licenses from https://spdx.org/licenses/ or https://opensource.org/licenses/alphabetical have columns to provide each license some means of showing it was OSI Approved. This is a helpful piece of information when looking at a license.

Quick mockups:

It seems that the trademark allows for noncommercial/community websites to use it.

Note: Could additionally do a similar badge or other metadata for the FSF license list which is also on many lists as a column.
