SUBROUTINES/METHODS

   get_info
       Returns a list of hash references describing copyright and license information that should
       be checked against the copyright target. The results returned are those obtained by
       applying the rules in the config file in sequence.  Each rule might have the fields as
       discussed in Debian::LicenseReconcile::Filter.

       In addition the following fields are supported:

       License (optional) - Specifies the exact license value. If not set the license will be
       obtained from licensecheck.
       Copyright (optional) - Specifies the exact copyright value. If not set the copyright will
       be obtained from licensecheck.
       CopyrightExtract (optional) - Gives a regular expression that is used to get copyright
       data from the file contents. Each captured value will be a line assumed to contain a
       sequence of years and the copyright holder. The regular expression will be enclosed in
       "m{....}xms". Also it supports an additional shorthand "\Y" which represents a year
       followed by various separators.
       CopyrightClean (optional) - Gives a regular exprression that is replaced in the copyright
       string by a single space.
