[v3.0.0] - 2025-07-22

While action API's backward compatibility is not broken, updated upstream checker has changed it's logic of searching for the license identifiers.

Changed

When using PyPI JSON API's to get a license name, the checker tries to read a SPDX license identifier from the license_expr first and if not found, falls back to the licese field.
