What this PR does / why we need it: This PR adds code to the DOI XML metadata generation to add information about Local Contexts Notices and Labels to what is sent to DataCite. The format follows https://support.datacite.org/docs/local-contexts-notices-and-labels. A companion PR to update the retrieval filtering aspects of the Local Contexts external vocabulary script is being created. With those changes, richer information can be added to the DataCite XML, but this PR will minimally add a link to the Local Contexts project if the retrieval filtering is not updated in parallel.

Which issue(s) this PR closes:

  • Closes #

Special notes for your reviewer: There are some inconsistencies in the guidance from DataCite and the Local Contexts API doesn't provide the exact information suggested for inclusion. I'll be working with Local Contexts to see what the best path forward is. Since changes to the guidance and API may take time, I think this PR should probably go forward as is and we can consider updates if/when others make changes.

Suggestions on how to test this: Configure LocalContexts as documented, add a dataset and link it to a project, export the Datacite format for the draft dataset and verify it contains Local Contexts rights info aligned with the guidance.
