 The `License` and `License URI` fields are required fields when submitting
 a theme to the theme directory, but these two fields cannot be retrieved
 with `wp_get_theme()`. I thought it would be a good idea to include these
 two fields as well as the other required fields.

 The reason behind submitting this ticket is related to the Create Block
 Thene plugin PR (https://github.com/WordPress/create-block-
 theme/pull/634). This plugin parses the active theme's `style.css` and
 copies all header fields to the overwritten or cloned theme. Currently,
 these two fields cannot be obtained using `wp_get_theme()`, so the only
 option is to use regular expressions or use `get_file_data()`.
