I think you'll need to add it to the layer as a common license, yes.   For
example, meta-intel's layer.conf does:

LICENSE_PATH += "${LAYERDIR}/common/custom-licenses"

And drops a few more license files into meta-intel/common/custom-licenses.

You may be able to set LICENSE_PATH in a recipe if you want to extract the
license and put it alongside the recipe, but I've not tried this.
