            Fix SPDX license expression: LGPL-2.0-only, not LGPL-2.0-or-later

The prior fix incorrectly changed LicenseRef-Callaway-LGPLv2 to
LGPL-2.0-or-later, adding "or-later" without evidence. The original
Fedora spec said "LGPLv2" (without +), meaning version-only.

Evidence for LGPL-2.0-only:
- 'COPYING': full text of "GNU Library General Public License,
  Version 2, June 1991" — no project-level "or later" declaration
- 'PKG-INFO' trove classifier: "License :: OSI Approved :: GNU Lesser
  General Public License v2 (LGPLv2)" — explicitly without "+"
- Zero source files (.py) contain any license header

The 'debian/copyright' does say "or later" but uses confused version
wording ("GNU Lesser ... version 2" — there is no GNU Lesser GPL v2;
the "Lesser" name started at v2.1). The COPYING file and PKG-INFO
are the authoritative indicators.
