The cargo metadata should include info from the license and license_file fields in Cargo.toml. This is useful for integration into other build systems which keep track of license details.

Ideally license_file should be a full relative path to the file, but maybe its sufficient if its relative to manifest_path.

Indeed! Should be an easy bug to tackle I think, just a few modifications to this block.
