PATCH 1/1 license.bbclass: run chown only under pseudo

The copy_license_files() function in license.bbclass is called in two different contexts. First, it is run as part of the do_populate_lic task. In addition, it is called from do_package task when LICENSE_CREATE_PACKAGE is enabled. The function has code that changes the owner of license files to root which is meant only to happend in the latter case - i.e. under do_package which is run under pseudo. Previously, the code was blindly always running chown and just ignored errors that happened when running from do_populate_lic. This patch changes it to be more intelligent, only doing chown when running under pseudo.
