Ok, this has been implemented[1] in the latest staged version so now you
should be able to just add:

config.install.legal=/usr/share/licenses/<project>/

And get the desired result (and, yes, you really can write `<project>`[2]).

We are about a week from starting the release sequence so if you could
try this out and confirm everything works as expected, that would be
great.
