Summary of changes
Added a new function for merging a second file into an existing .opossum file using opossum-file. Organized the opossum-file related code into a class hierarchy to better deal with the growing "dimensions" (convert/merge, legacy/scancode/owasp) of provided functionality.
Context and reason for change
Preparation for full integration of merging input files in OpossumUI (#2730)
How can the changes be tested
Unit tests for the new functionality are in opossum-file.test.ts
