Description

I am updating go-inspector to v0.5.0 and I am failing the test `test_recognize_winexe` (https://github.com/aboutcode-org/scancode-toolkit/blob/develop/tests/packagedcode/test_recognize.py#L134) with the exception raised by go-inspector saying "Failed to parse file: no valid pclntab found".

I don't think it should matter if go-inspector can't parse the file, we should continue and try the other recognizers instead of stopping.
