Description
### Description
Ignored (using the `--ignore` feature) dotdirs show up in the JSON output file.
### How To Reproduce
```
scancode -v --ignore ".*" --json-lines=scancode.json -l --strip-root .
```
no dotdirs show up in the verbose output (they are still analyzed based on subjective execution time), but they are included in the "scancode.json" file. Same behavior using explicit non-glob patterns, e.g. `--ignore ".venv"`.
### System configuration
* Linux
* scancode-toolkit 32.2.1
* rye (uv)
