Report the number of lines in a text file #1350

Since scans (license and copyrights) typically return line ranges, it would be useful to return the number of lines if a file is a text file.

@pombredanne scans (license and copyrights) return line ranges for the text matched. When you say to include number of lines do you mean to add it for the whole file like here?
