Hey all,

there can be multiple <rights> tags with or without one of the three  
values "music", "words" or "arrangement" in the identification element of a  
score. musicxml2ly v2.15.29 dumps all of them in the LilyPond variable  
copyright without mentioning the type. The content of this variable is  
typeset in one line. This makes it impossible to tell which "license"  
applies to which type.

Possible solution:
* the type value should be automatically put in front of the contents of  
the  <rights> tags in the copyright variable
* if there are several <rights> tags with the same content the content  
should only be printed once, e.g. "Public Domain" or "Music & Words: Public  
Domain"...
