[Bug 1466098] [NEW] licensecheck fails to parse copyright if a / is contained

Public bug reported:

Since the last update in wily, licensecheck fails to recognize copyright
headers of this format:

Copyright (C) 2013 Digia Plc and/or its subsidiary(-ies).

Seems removing the "/" makes it pass again. This is the standard format
used in Qt copyright headers and it looks fine to me. Previous versions
of licensecheck parsed this fine.
