Preserve package scope when generating tags from component

[Jason3S]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm in the process of porting a repo that uses Lerna to release-please, Rep: streetsidesoftware/cspell-dicts: Various cspell dictionaries. The challenge is that the tag generation in release-please is removing the scope from the package name when generating the tags. For example, the package name is @cspell/dict-en_us and the version tag is @cspell/[email protected]. But release-please is looking for tags staring with dict-en_us which do not exist.

There doesn't seem to be a way to tell release-please to keep the package scope.

Related to #1497 and #1497

Describe the solution you'd like

Add a configuration option to keep the original package name including scope when tags are generated.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I tried adding package-name in the packages section of release-please-config.json, but that did not work.

        "dictionaries/en_US": {
            "releaseType": "node",
            "package-name": "@cspell/dict-en_us"
        },

Additional context

• cspell-dicts/.release-please-manifest.json at main · streetsidesoftware/cspell-dicts
• cspell-dicts/release-please-config.json at main · streetsidesoftware/cspell-dicts

This is the code that is removing the scope:

release-please/src/strategies/node.ts

Lines 79 to 84 in a61fa92

	protected normalizeComponent(component: string | undefined): string {
	if (!component) {
	return '';
	}
	return component.match(/^@[\w-]+\//) ? component.split('/')[1] : component;
	}

The workaround seems to be to explicitly add the component name to each entry:

release-please-config.json

        "dictionaries/en_US": {
            "releaseType": "node",
            "component": "@cspell/dict-en_us"
        },
