Rights desk

Check an intended use against a license: permitted, prohibited, needs review or not documented, with duties and an uncertainty block (level: none, review or undocumented; reasons; human_review_required). A check reads license terms only; its verdicts are not receipt verdicts (allowed, blocked) and never convert into them
