Description
For me, the default installation with
```bash
pip install --no-cache scancode-toolkit==33.0.0rc1 --index-url https://pypi.org/simple
```
would break the following snippet:
```python
from licensedcode.models import load_licenses_from_multiple_dirs, licenses_data_dir
load_licenses_from_multiple_dirs(
builtin_license_data_dir=licenses_data_dir,
additional_license_data_dirs=[],
with_deprecated=False,
)
```
Output:
> licensedcode.models.InvalidLicense: No licenses were loaded. Check to see if the license data files are available at "/home/user/lib/python3.11/site-packages/licensedcode/data/licenses".
Installing `licensedcode-data` solved this, but given the description, it seems like it should have been installed automatically.
