patch for changes required in jsdt features

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #336519 +++

There is a new Eclipse license (EUA) that includes a new line about EDL. 

And, rather than do a "mass file/property update" we should move to the new "PDE build" technique to reference the license file, which is then included at build-time, so future updates are easier. This issue is discussed in Kim's blog post; 
http://relengofthenerds.blogspot.com/2011/01/implementing-shared-licenses-with-37m5.html

I'll try a few test features ... say, xml features, just to make sure it works as expected then provide patches/instructions for a mass update.

I appears this change for licensing got partially committed, but not entirely. 

These attributes were released: 

 license-feature="org.eclipse.license"
      license-feature-version="1.0.0.qualifier" 

But none of the other changes ... so, ends up with "conflicts in property files" and causes the build to fail. 

Can you sort it out? Or want a new patch?

I can sort it out.  Should just be a few minutes.

That should do it.
