I don't see the text of that file anywhere in the Emacs sources. Is it
supposed to replace admin/unidata/copyright.html or to be applied in
addition to it?

In the latter case, the problem isn't solved, because we still have:

Also, I don't see a reference to license.txt in any header of
the individual files in admin/unidata/. They either link to
https://www.unicode.org/terms_of_use.html (which redirects to
copyright.html) or they don't have any license notice at all.
