Extend i2c-tools SPDX identifiers to include the library license.

The ic2-tools readme states:

LICENSE

Check the documentation of individual tools for licensing information.
The library is released under the LGPL version 2.1 or later, while most
tools are released under the GPL version 2 or later, but there are a few
exceptions.

Please add COPYING.LGPL here as well. And while you are at it, I think
adding README would also be good.
