Pull request overview
Updates the license-scan exclusion filtering in SourceBuild smoke tests so ignore patterns are respected regardless of directory depth, preventing exclusions from being incorrectly considered “unused” when scanning subsets of the repo.
Changes:
- Adjust negative lookahead construction in the exclusion regex to match ignored prefixes at any depth under the scan root.
