Description
When scanning a single package, there are several assumption that could be made that would make scan and summarization results clearer and easier to review and reuse.
We could hint scancode with a new command line option (such as `--as-package` )
See also https://github.com/nexB/scancode.io/issues/27 for another approach that is possibly complementary or an alternative.
