Issue

When building a project with poetry build, if one has a LICENSE file defined in the root of the project, this file will be included in the package.

I could not find this behaviour documented anywhere. I believe it would be worth mentioning that:

1. This behaviour exists
2. It only works for a file named as LICENSE* in the root folder

To me, the place in the docs I would expect this information to be is either in describing the fields license or include in the pyproject.toml or in the section talking about packaging.
