Descrizione

## Short Description
Apache-2.0 license texts without the appendix are recognized only as license notices, not license texts.
An example of such a license text can be found here: https://github.com/Open-Source-Compliance/tdosca-tc06-plainhw/blob/master/input-sources/LICENSE.Apache-2.0

**It should be discussed, whether the license without the appendix can be treated as a full license text or not. If not, this issue is void.**

## **Describe the Update**
Enable the is_license_text flag on Apache-2.0 license text findings without an appendix, but otherwise full text.

## **How This Feature will help you/your organization**
We are using the is_license_text flag to access original license texts as provided by the authors. In an automated scenario, the above "truncated" license text would be missed.
