As a follow up to #2616 there is a possibility to have a scan for a single file that references itself. This is a rare and odd case but we are ignoring it for now based on https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/pull/2616/files#diff-e2d4fe549f45bf3d5eead089ceb9d1688b9b950dc4d208b348dd889ecf8bf985R123

This is a fluke. A file referencing itself does not need following, since it is already itself . :] (Note this was for #1364 )
