Message:

abcl-1.2.0-rc-0-1: additional non-functional changes in project metadata.

There should be no direct mention of previous hosting URIs in the
current sources and binaries.

Hopefully clarified licensing for those distributors who choose to
emit the classpath exception to the overarching GPL.

Update README.
