Have "All rights reserved." contained in json output

Description

I'm using Scancode to detect the copyright in a repo. I have the copyright pattern as:

(c) Copyright XXXX Ltd. 20* All rights reserved.

*is the year
Currently in json result, the copyright value is:

 "copyrights": [
        {
          "value": "(c) Copyright XXXX Ltd. 20*",  
          "start_line": 2,
          "end_line": 2
        }
      ],

I expect the copyright statement would end up with "All rights reserved." So, it should look like:

 "copyrights": [
        {
          "value": "(c) Copyright XXXX Ltd. 20* All rights reserved.",  
          "start_line": 2,
          "end_line": 2
        }
      ],

I notice #559 , but what should I do to have that picked up?
Thank you!

@yiting-wang33 as I explained in #559 (comment) we explicitly do not capture these as they are considered obsolete per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_rights_reserved#Obsolescence.

It would be possible to capture them and that would require changes to the part of speech tagger and grammar we use to detect and parse copyright statements in https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/blob/develop/src/cluecode/copyrights.py

Is this something that you would like to tackle and contribute to the project?

Note that at this stage we do collect All rights reserved suffixes AND we do not return them by default. This is an optional argument in the copyright detection function. This is not surfaced in the UI CLI options though.
