Pass more specific license argument in setup.py
This uses "BSD-3-Clause" instead of "BSD" as the "license" metadata in setup.py. "BSD-3-Clause" is the SPDX license identifier for the BSD 3-Clause "New" or "Revised" License (the license GitPython uses): https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause.html There is no requirement to use an SPDX license identifier here, but it is one of the common approaches, and it has the advantage of making unambiguously clear, when a package is published on PyPI, exactly what license it uses. In contrast, the license-related *classifier* is unchanged, since no more specific classfifier than what is in use now is currently available. The combination should result in License: BSD License (BSD-3-Clause) being shown under "Meta" on PyPI, as of the next PyPI release. This can be seen in other projects that use this combination of license keyword argument and license-related classifier, such as: https://pypi.org/project/flask-restx/
