Dump updated version of copyright

Walter Lozano requested to merge wip/wlozano/dump-fix into apertis/v2024dev3

During license scan some fixups are possible by guessing license and copyright from other sources, like debian/copyright. To do this the ci-license-scan removes paragraphs and and new ones with the fixup information. A common example of this scenario is UNKNOWN licenses which are guessed from debian/copyright.

However, the "removal" is not supported by the library, the scripts relies in knowing the internal data structure to accoplish this.

Unfortunately, since Bookworm, the data structure is more complex and preserves a low level copy of the data which is used on dumping. As a consequence, when dumping the new copyright the fixup information is not present.

Workaround the issue by using the old version of the dump.
