Add LICENSE_FILE pointing to license file if one exists in the source 
download

Both the PyPI sdist (MASTER_SITES=CHEESESHOP) and the GitHub repo have 
one: "COPYING"

Use MASTER_SITES=CHEESESHOP if the project uploads a source tarball 
("sdist") there, unless there's a compelling temporary reason to use an 
alternative source, like missing license files, test files, etc.
