    • enable debug output for encoding tests
    • fix one devscripts TODO test
    • parse perl-generated Software::License data as utf8

    • rewrite Software::License tests to check against library
    • rewrite devscripts tests to use library
    • separate script report tests from devscripts.t
    • use only SPDX shortnames (not also debian shortnames) for Software::License and SPDX tests, and list only deviating entries
  • Other
    • Added: add options --quiet --debug --trace (and deprecate now no-op option --no-verbose)
    • Run perltidier (not perltidy) with tidyall
    • avoid given/when
    • call log->trace() (not log->tracef()) for simple strings
    • change option --skipped to use Log::Tiny (not core warn), and log as debug when not set
    • declare package version with package name, and move POD sections NAME VERSION SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION closer to top of files
    • have $fh $license $copyrights as slots (not local variables)
    • improve resolving offset
    • logging: dump content as trace (not notice)
    • logging: log fatal errors using Log::Tiny
    • logging: log files processed as debug, with decoding details (not tersely as trace)
    • logging: warn about obsolete options using Log::Tiny (not using core warn)
    • logging: warn tersely on file decoding failure, and list error message as debug (not all as notice)
    • merge method parse_lines() into parse_file(), and use $encoding slot (stop redefine as local variable)
    • pass around File object (not path, content and (currently unused) offset in content)
    • refactor to have slot $path in main class (not class File)
    • refactor to hold semi-cleaned content (not cleaned-for-license-parsing) in slot $content
    • refactor to merge local class File into main class
    • refactor to read and decode files in method content()
    • refactor to use Object::Pad (not Moo or MooX::Struct)
