Subject of the issue

Minor issue: Missleading German translation in identity field "License Number"

Deployment environment

• vaultwarden version:
  2022.12.0

• Install method:
  docker - image: vaultwarden/server:1.27.0

• Clients used:
  web vault, compared to official bitwarden Android app and browser extensions

Steps to reproduce

1. install vaultwarden via docker
2. set language to German
3. create a new identity

Expected behaviour

German translation = "Führerscheinnummer"

This would be similar to translation in bitwarden clients, at least in android app and browser extensions.

Actual behaviour

German translation = "Lizenznummer"

While this is literal translation of "License Number", it is wrong here.
In German, "Lizenznummer" is used in context of e.g. software licenses. The number of the driver license, which is used in context of persons/identities, is called "Führerscheinnummer".

Troubleshooting data

Not a big issue, but I guess it would be an easy fix. :)
