Description
We have the case of requiring multiple copyright years in our license headers for our source files.
Example:
```
/*
* (c) Copyright CompanyA Inc., 2010-2020
* (c) Copyright CompanyB Inc., 2020-2021
*/
```
Currently the `LicenseHeaderStep` only supports replacing/updating the placeholder for the year (`$YEAR` or `$today.year`) only a single time.
Using this template:
```
/*
* (c) Copyright CompanyA Inc., $YEAR
* (c) Copyright CompanyB Inc., $YEAR
*/
```
The result would be as follows:
```
/*
* (c) Copyright CompanyA Inc., 2010-2020
* (c) Copyright CompanyB Inc., $YEAR
*/
```
