Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev

With USE="lights", two additional distfiles are downloaded for which I cannot find any license.

fuhquake-lits.rar:
- The rar archive doesn't contain any license.
- http://www.fuhquake.net/ is in Japanese (and according to Google translator it's an estate agent).
- I don't see any license in the archived page at https://web.archive.org/web/20060819212555/http://fuhquake.net/ either.
- SRC_URI is dead.

id1.pk3:
- The zipball contains a ReadMe.txt file, but it doesn't say anything about distribution or license.
- https://www.kgbsyndicate.com/ still exists, but I don't see any license information anywhere on it either.
- SRC_URI is dead.

The main zipball seems to be under GPL-2+, but I haven't done a full license audit yet.

Please ask upstream what license fuhquake-lits.rar and id1.pk3 have, or drop the "lights" USE flag. (Obviously we cannot mirror restrict the files because their SRC_URI is dead.)
