Introduce stop words to license detection #1356

Description

@pombredanne

There are a few rare words that should be entirely excluded at all times from the license detection.
These are mostly comment markers such as dnl (in autotools .m4 files) and rem (in DOS .bat files) and possibly LIST used in some ASCII firmware dumps as a comment marker. The same could be used for a limited set of HTML or XML tags (<em>, <strong>, <href>, <a, etc.) that are otherwise not helping with detection. (And this would be in contrast with stripping markup)
