test: remove unneeded exceptions and aliases from license validator

clydin · alan-agius4 · commit 64346a5eca38 · 2023-11-02T14:00:14.000+01:00
The `fs-monkey`, `memfs` and `spdx-license-ids` packages all now have valid license
fields and allowed licenses. All three have been removed from the exceptions
list.
Several SPDX license aliases have been removed as they are no longer used
by any dependencies within the project. The aliases only existed due to
previous non-standard SPDX identifiers present in used packages.
Additionally, the license validator automatically handles SPDX combination
syntax and combinations do not need to be listed explicitly.
