Fixes #1683
Adds support for storing scanned packages/archives locally if checked .

  1. As of now scancode.io scans packages but has no extra option for storing scanned packages/archives locally.
  2. This PR adds this feature where in an extra checkbox has been given optionally for users if they want to store it locally as shown in fig below .
  3. As discussed with mentors , it was suggested to add it in general for all pipelines that are present in scancode.io

@VarshaUN Thanks for your work on this PR, it's a great start! That said, it currently lacks some important context. When submitting a PR, try to assume that the reviewer isn’t familiar with anything outside of what’s included here (like your proposal or earlier discussions).

To improve this, please start by clearly documenting:

  • The goals of the changes.
  • Any new concepts introduced.
  • How to set up and use the new features.
  • How this change fits into the larger project context.
  • Examples of use cases.
  • Known limitations or edge cases.
  • Potential side effects or breaking changes.

This will not only help with the current review process but will also serve as a strong foundation for future documentation improvements.

It would also be helpful to include:

  • A summary of what has been implemented so far.
  • Any remaining TODOs.
  • Open questions or design points that need further discussion.

Keep up the good work—looking forward to seeing this evolve!
