I've done that in the v2 of 74034. I actually introduce two properties,
cpe-vendor and lint-hidden-cpe-vendors (akin to lint-hidden-cve). This
is because:
- most of the time we don't have a cpe-vendor but we know which
others cpe-vendors to ignore
- knowing which ones to ignore brings more information than
lint-hidden-cve since it's stable in time (future CVEs for other
packages won't get raised)
