Correct Apache-2.0 license short identifier (#301)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
According to the following sources, there is a missing "-" in the Apache license short identifier.

* https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0
* https://spdx.org/licenses/Apache-2.0.html

** Why is this important?**
Many packages in ROS2 are using the Apache license. There are potential legal issues in the future if developers are using the wrong short identifier (as I was doing).
