because the script cannot know if anything copyright-worthy has been done. Plus removing old years can be seen as a sign that we do not want to claim copyright for the old code anymore and we do not want to give that impression. The recommendation there is to either not give a year at all (because we have version control anyway) or specify multiple years, e.g. 2010-2012 or 2010,2012,2025
Without this change, it added an "LLC" in the wrong place
because we cannot know who is calling this script. It might be an external contributor and we are very explicit that we do not want copyright assignment from contributors.
To lessen the change of past behavior
If a SUSE employee email is in the .changes file, the SUSE LLC Copyright still takes precedence.

We use 'openSUSE' to refer to our distribution, websites and project, so it could be good to be more specific here.

This extends PR #74 for .spec files without Copyright.
If the .changes file was not updated by a SUSE-employee, an openSUSE copyright line gets added.
