Package form disclaimer should be configurable #261

@jqnatividad

Description

@jqnatividad

Right now, you can explicitly specify a license.

In addition, there's a default Open Database License disclaimer for the metadata on the package_form snippet.

There was an extensive discussion on the reasoning behind this - ckan/ckan#1503, which holds true in the traditional "open data" use case, which does not apply to an enterprise DMS use case.

Why not make it a configurable option with the default value set to the existing text?

I realize that you can always override the snippet, but it'd be better if its easily configurable.
