The system_stm32h7xx.c file provided in the boards/stm/stm32h7b3i-dk
subdirectory needs a bit of clarification as it references "root directory"
in its license comment and it's not clear where this points out.
Let's add clarification comment about it and also based on it
and resulting license let's add SPDX license identifier.
